Just decided on lift (cc ?) - JustBreastImplants.com Forums - Breast Augmentation, Breast Implants, and Plastic Surgeons

I just decided, along with my ps, that I will include a lift with my ba. I am so excited about this, but I am a little disappointed with my ps's opinion about size of implant when getting a lift.
He wants to give me the vertical (lollipop) lift. I was really wanting to be a full C or baby D, but he seems to think that going with a smaller implant would be better 300-330cc's. I understand the reasoning behind this, but I really think I may ask for at least 390cc's.
Any advise?

Maybe have a 2nd opinion. I had the benelli lift and my PS said he thought I could easily take 475, I think thats what I had, I cant remember now. I had a lot of skin. My boobies are prob at least 32 E now (not been properly measured). You really dont wanna wish you went bigger afterwards, as seems 2 happen alot.

Good luck!

I am same height and a little more on the weight side than yourself but I had lollipop lift with HP 325 and I got a nice 36D/DD in most bras ( although I am now being greedy and want more.) We all take cc amounts differently and some people are large with a smaller amount of cc. Express to him that you would like to be bigger. Sometimes we say one thing to our PS, like " oh I still want to look natural " yet once they have given a smaller implant to accommodate a natural look we are not happy and really wanted to look a little fake, if you understand what I mean. So all you can do is tell him how you feel but remember that he has suggested a certain size for a reason and if he uses the implant that you want then the outcome will be on your shoulders. All the best and take care.

I had a lift and got 450 implants on the advice of my PS...I wish I would of gone just a little bit bigger like I wanted...ultimalty it's up to you, it's your body. I wish I would of spoke up about how I felt. I told him I wanted bigger but he said smaller is better. So I guess what i'm trying to say is that you should take his advice but also take your own feelings into consideration and maybe work something out in between what he wants and what you want. Also getting a second opinion like Nikki said would be good to.
Good Luck!

Thanks girls. I have totally reconsidered getting a lift based on wanting a certain size. I am right at the point where I don't exactly need a lift, but I could use one if I wanted a perkier look. I called my ps's office to talk to my nurse about reconsidering. I'm expecting a call back today.
One more thing, if I get a lift, I definitely want to get the benilli lift, not lollipop. My doctor said that I was a candidate for a benilli, but he prefers to do a vertical. I think this is because he had the most experience with the vertical lift, not because the vertical would be the best choice for me.

Go Benelli. Although you can hardly see my scars, they are still there. I would not have got away with a benelli (socks with rocks if you get my drift ) but if you can then do so and if it doesnt work then go lollipop. You have nothing to loose but everything to gain. I love my lollipop lift and my thoughts were I didnt like them previously ( before surgery ) so my surgeon couldnt do much more wrong to them. Good Luck.
