Boob advice please

So I am putting this in style and beauty as I'm not sure where it fits?

I am due to have a boob job soon as I am completely flat chested, I always have been but two kids have completely ruined what little I had.

I will be getting my implants behind the muscle as I have so little tissue, but I am not sure whether to go for round or teardrop. I want them to look natural but have heard so many pros and cons of both I was hoping some of you could help me out based on your experience?

Also, what cc did you choose and what size did you end up?

I'm an A cup and the doctor says that 250cc will put me at a C cup, but I'm worried that is too small? I want natural but great boobs!! I'm not a skinny small girl...I'm a pear shape, but look reasonably athletic...definitely not fine boned or petite.

Any help/advice/experience very welcome!!!

Hi, I had a boob job 2 years ago, best thing I ever did. I'm a size 6 and petite, I went for 300cc round implants, they look perfect and natural, sometimes I wish I had gone bigger!! Good luck with your operation.

Thank you for your reply!! Can I ask if they were placed behind the muscle? What size were you before and what size are you now? I know this is a very intrusive question so please don't answer if you don't want to. I'm trying to figure out if 250cc is perhaps too small for me...

I am going back for another consultation and I want to be more prepared and sure of myself.

Hi, I had 260 and went from A cup to C/D I had very little breast tissue, so I had behind the the muscle, I was told not to go to big with less tissue as they can look very fake.

I've got 390cc I was a 32C before and now I'm a 32F/G depending on make/style. My surgeon wouldn't do behind the muscle which I was fine about at the time but really regret now. I went for the bigger implant as my skin was very saggy from breast feeding. I'm considering another op to go behind the muscle 😬

Can they not show you the implant? It’s probably better to go bigger than be disappointed after surgery.

Also a C is tiny, you’ll probably be much bigger but need to use boob or busts method to measure.

250cc is quite small. I have 400cc and they're small on my size 12 frame.

Notever · 30/03/2022 18:49

@dontblamemee why do you regret over muscle?

dontblamemee · 30/03/2022 18:56

@Notever they just feel saggy now 3 years on. I feel like they'd be firmer under the muscle

I think I'd be more inclined to go for a d cup but in pear drop shape if you're worried about them looking fake.

The average UK size is bigger than a c cup the days so no one is going to be thinking they look fake if you go for a D. I wouldn't bother with surgery for less than that tbh. I'd want my moneys worth lol.

I'm a 32b, got the implants under the muscle. I agree that 200cc might be very small...
