About This Implant Choice
Smooth, round silicone. Round implants give fullness to both the upper and lower breast. Silicone gel tends to feel softer and more like natural breast tissue than saline, which is one reason many patients choose it.
Under the muscle. Placing the implant beneath the chest muscle adds a layer of coverage over the upper part of the implant. In patients with little breast tissue to start with, as in this case, that extra coverage helps the upper breast look smoother and more natural.
Is 275cc a Big Implant?
275cc is a moderate size. It’s not large, but it gives a clear increase in fullness on a slim frame like this patient’s. How big any implant looks depends on your chest width, your starting breast tissue and the implant’s profile, so there’s no reliable conversion from cc to cup size.
275cc vs. 240cc Implants
The difference between 275cc and 240cc is 35cc, a little over two tablespoons. Compare this result with our 240cc silicone breast implants case study, where the patient’s priority was the most subtle result possible.
Choosing Your Implant Size
At your consultation, Dr. Constantine measures your chest and breast width, assesses your skin and tissue, and talks through the look you want, using photos of patients with a similar build. Read our guide to breast implant size, shape and filling to prepare.
