Why Are C Cup Breast Implants A Popular Size?

Achieve Fuller and Curvier Breasts with a Moderate Size Increase in St. Louis, Missouri

Breast augmentation, the medical term for which is augmentation mammoplasty, is a frequently performed cosmetic surgery for patients hoping to enhance their appearance and boost their self-esteem. Patients sometimes refer to this surgery slangily as "boob augmentation" or simply "breast aug." We often get asked questions such as, "What is the optimal breast implant size?" "How do I decide which implant size to get?" or "Can I get C cup breast implants?" Our St. Louis West County Plastic Surgeons of Washington University can discuss implant sizes with you and help you decide on the best option.

The Benefits of C Cup Breast Implants

For patients who would like to add fullness to their breasts with implants, the size of the implants is an important factor for consideration. There are a variety of sizes available. Most women are familiar with the A, B, C, D, and other breast cup sizes, but implants are measured in terms of cubic centimeters or CCs for short. Every 150 to 200 CCs is the equivalent of a one to one and a half cup size increase. The size some patients refer to as C cup breast implants - ones with a volume of roughly 750-850ml - is one of the most sought-after implant sizes. You have the option of choosing whichever size you want, including C cup breast implants or larger ones; however, certain implant sizes may not be your best option. The right size and shape for implants vary; there is no specific size that is perfect for every patient. C cup breast implants are considered medium-sized and are thought to be an ideal middle ground for many, as they are not too small nor too large. On average, C cup breast implants look proportional for most body types.

What Else is Available Beyond C Cup Breast Implants?

West County Plastic Surgeons provides many procedures to enhance the size and shape of the breasts. In addition to breast augmentation, we offer breast reduction to reduce the size of overly large breasts and improve body proportions, breast implant revision to address any issues or changes after a previous breast surgery, and more. A tummy tuck provides a slimmer and firmer-looking abdomen by addressing loose skin and excess fat, while liposuction minimizes stubborn diet and exercise-resistant fat on virtually any area of the body.
