    Default Perfect New Boob Size??

    Hi there everyone. I'm wondering what everyone thinks is the perfect boob size. Yes, I know that it needs to be determined at the time of surgery, but I'm trying to think ahead.

    I've heard that many ladies who have their breasts done say they wish they'd gone a size larger. I'm currently a 36D, when I get everything lifted and tucked into my bra. But I'm wondering about when I get things lifted back up in February or so. If I get a C will I want my D's back? Just curious as to what everyone thinks?

    Stay perky!




    SMILE!! It makes people wonder what you're up to!

    The average stastistics of what men believe looks normal and preferred is a size naturally proportionate to that individual. Contrary to popular belief of women whom are insecure of their breast size for whatever rationale, is that most men do NOT care about the fake looking enormous breasts. It's really your preference vs what a group of internet strangers think. I merely bring stastistics vs opinion of the opposite sex.

    Well, how tall are you? Do you have a petite, medium or large frame? I'm 4'9"...and am a 36 D, but after I lose weight, I will want to be a D again...a full D', which to some...may be extreme...but I am going to wait to see how much weight I lose. Maybe a full C will be good enough...

    I think it depends on the person's shape, waist, hips, etc. It should be proportioned. I'm going to a plastic surgeon on June 22 and I'm 62! My friends think I'm crazy, but I want some inner thigh excess fat sucked out, and breasts lifted. Keep you all informed.

    Jerzygirl...you are not crazy!! I am 54 and planning on a tummy tuck and breast lift and maybe inner thigh lift. Who are you using as a surgeon, if I may ask?

    Oh, I am now a 38DD. After the lift and a few more lbs gone, I hope to be a 36D. I'm 5'9" and a larger frame.

    I'm a 38C almost D, but a woman at Victoria Secret fitted me in a 36DD and I look fantastic (if I may say so). Consequently, I've decided against new implants (I already have the "C" implants and wish I'd gone a bit larger back in 1994), and am just getting the tummy tuck on July 14th!! YIKES! I never considered a LIFT as even with the weight gain and loss, I didn't sag....my plastic surgeon back in 1994 told me, "You will never sag"...and apparently, he was correct! My cup size never got larger...weird.

    I got a bra at Victoria's Secret on Wed. and it was a 38DD. It's called "show-stopper", and I'm not sure about stopping the show, but it sure does stop the "saggy" look..lol... I'm perky and loving it. I live in south jersey and using a local surgeon. I'm not sure about the lift, but would love an inner thigh reduction. I'm keeping all my options open and hoping insurance will cover some of the work. I think we more "mature" ladies, know what it's all about and are not afraid to go for it!

    I started at 52G/H and am now a 40G. I'd love a lift but not a reduction. My cup size has always been large, I was a DDD in high school when I weighed 140 and I wouldn't feel right without them.
    I figure if I can afford a lift, or if the ins will do it to help my shoulder/neck pain, then just taking the extra skin off will make me a DDD. I'd be ok with that but no smaller. I won't get implants. I know from experience my body doesn't do well with plastics/silicone/etc in me. I wear Cacique bras, the larger womans Victoria Secret I agree it's also about body symmetry and type. Some people look great with a C and some with a G.
    Best NSV - fitting on a kid's amusement park ride with my 4 yr old grandson!
    CFIDS =Chronic Fatigue Syndrome) Also dx with post-bariatric reactive hypoglycemia; and chronic gastritis (both sleeve complications). Permanently disabled.
    Start weight 335, down to 218, up during gastritis. Have accepted there is no way to lose it with my hypoglycemia. Current weight 260. Currently doing 10 day sleeve reset and determined to get back down to my post surgical weight or close to it.

    If you have insurance do it they usually have a prerequisite of taking so much tissue out and you might not be happy w/ the results-you'd want to ask the surgeon about that beforehand.


    Also, the reason I want a C is that breasts get larger over time or should I say sag over time so you end up w/ something bigger than what you started with, in my case I'd rather start out w/ a C and then get no larger than a D.
