Size
Most women in Houston, Texas choose to have breast augmentation to increase breast size.
Whether
you want to fill out clothing better, look better in dresses, tops, or swim suits, or feel
more
confident unclothed, breast augmentation can help you achieve the figure you want.
Breast implants are typically measured in cubic centimeters or cc’s. In general, 100-200 cc
will
enhance your breast by approximately one cup size. However, not all bra cup sizes are
created
equal. A bra size at Victoria Secret may be different than a bra size found at Nordstrom,
Target
or other department stores. When determining breast implant
size during breast augmentation
consultation, you should give your TOPS plastic surgeon an idea of the before and after look
you
are trying to achieve so that they can help guide you to find the best breast augmentation
size
for you. During your consultation plastic surgeons and staff at The Oaks Plastic Surgery
work
with you to choose a breast implant size that achieves your breast enhancement goals and
best
fits your anatomy. Our Houston plastic surgeons encourage you to bring swim suit tops, nice
dresses or tops, and T-shirts to try on different breast implant sizes during your
consultation
to find the best size for you.
Asymmetry
If your breasts are asymmetric, you are not alone. Most patients have some form of breast
asymmetry. If you find that your breast asymmetry causes you to constant need to pad your
bra, feel self conscious in dresses or bathing suits, or makes it difficult to fit in
clothes, breast augmentation can help.
After Weight Loss
The Oaks Plastic Surgery is a huge advocate of healthy
lifestyles in Houston, Texas and are
incredibly proud of our patients who undergo and sustain significant weight loss.
Unfortunately, one area that women often don’t want to lose, but tend to lose first is in
the breast area. Weight loss can lead smaller, deflated breasts. Breast augmentation
can
help improve the shape and size of your breasts for a more aesthetic appearance that is in
proportion to your new body.
It is important to note that after significant weight loss, it is very common to experience
more significant breast sagging, which you make you a better candidate for a breast lift
(mastopexy) with or without breast augmentation. Your TOPS
plastic surgeon will personally
discuss these options with you and provide a breast procedure
that will fit your specific
goals.
