The size that a 300 g breast implant will augment you depends on your height and weight, the width of your chest and breastbone, the sagging of your skin and how much breast tissue you had to begin with. Without having that information, it is difficult to give you a better answer. Speak with your plastic surgeon as to what your expectations were.

Going with 300g/ml would have increased your cup size by about two. I recommend you visit my site xlbreastimplantsdotinfo.

Patients often think in terms of cup size when considering augmentation. Unfortunately, devices are sized in terms of milliliters (cc) of volume. This can lead to some confusion when sizing. Additionally, it is important to remember that cup size itself is not standardized with variations from one manufacturer to another. Unfortunately, as many women can attest their cup size in an industry leader such as VS is not necessarily transferable to another brand.

A general rule of thumb is that 125cc can represent somewhere between 1/2 to a full cup size increase. Smaller volume differentials (25-50cc) are typically less consequential representing a volume change of less than a shot glass. However, I have found these numbers, at least anecdotally, to be of little help. Patients often present with notions/goals which do not correlate with these sorts of sterile volumetric assessments.

The best advice, when selecting implants is to focus on the look and not the cup. The cup size will vary from one manufacturer to the next, however, your aesthetic goals will not vary. Love the look...not the cup.

As always, discuss your concerns with a board certified plastic surgeon (ABPS).

Implants sizes are described by their specifications which include base width (diameter), projection and volume (number of ccs or cubic centimeters).

Bra cup size is determined by a different set of measurements, and it varies greatly between manufacturers, styles, coverage, fit, comfort and personal choice.

There is a significant crossover between sizes due to all the sizing variables; a woman who wears a C-cup can also fit well into certain D-cup bras.

Your impression that you are "too small" is not uncommon after breast augmentation. Try to focus on your overall result and improvements from the pre-op stage. Not so much on the exact implant volume or cup size.
