How do You Determine the Appropriate Implant Size?

One of the most important parts of a successful breast augmentation is choosing the right size breast implant. Many women will choose a size that looks natural, but some women prefer breasts that are as large as they can get before looking cartoonish or “unnatural.” During your breast augmentation consultation with Dr. Rifai, you will discuss which size works best for you.

Determining the appropriate size is done based on your individual anatomy, which is done through your measurements. However, some things you can do at home to find a size that you want is by inserting rice into a plastic bag and then inserting it into your bra. This rice test will give you a fairly accurate representation of what you might look like with breast implants.

You may also visit the websites of breast implant manufacturers, view various before and after photos, and speak to any friends who may have undergone breast augmentation.

One thing you can do is to bring any pictures of the breast size you would like to your consultation. You and Dr. Rifai can then discuss your goals while going through Dr. Rifai’s before and after pictures to see his work.
