I found this on the website of a plastic surgeon giving information about how many cup sizes you can expect to go up with the implant size you have chosen.

Here it is......

If you wear a 32 bra, each cup size is approximately 130cc. If you
are an 32 A cup already, to increase to a C cup would be: 2 x 130cc =
260cc for each implant. For a 34 bra size, each additional cup size is
approximately 150cc. For a 36 bra size, each cup size is 175. For a 38
bra, each cup size is 200cc.

For example, in my case I am a 36 bra and I had 700cc...so 700/175= 4 cups sizes.....and that's exactly how many sizes I went up from a 36C to a 36G. With my 1500cc, starting again from 36..I will go up 8.5 sizes...so I expect to go from 36C to approx 36J maybe JJ.

Try it girlies...and don't forget real boobs eg in 36C are bigger than 36 implant boobs. xxx

I don't know if this is a stupid question but isn't 36C to 36G 6 cup sizes? Blush

Hi can anyone please advise me, I'm 5"2 and weigh 10st, I used to weigh 18st so have a lot of loose excess skin I would currently say I'm a very empty 36 A-B cup. I'm having my BA on 19th Nov, I have made my final decision to go under the muscle and to go for tear drop shape, my surgeon has advised me to go for 415cc - Could anyone recommend what size they think this would make me.

No one can say hun
I have very similar stats to you but 5'5"
I'd guess youd be bigger than E cup

Hi Krizzoo, am I right in saying I've read somewhere that your are only a 32 back though, as doesn't this make a difference to cup sizes? I heard that if your a 32 back each 100cc is a cup size 34 back 150cc is a cup size and 36 back 175cc is a cup. So because I have a larger top frame than you mine will look smaller? xxx

I was told by my surgeon that 100cc is roughly a cup size.

by Gsyfem1982 21st October 2014, 10:01 am

Hi Kezjb, can I please ask what bra size you are please? x

by Gsyfem1982 21st October 2014, 10:04 am

Sorry just realised your stats are posted underneath! I'm a size 34/36 b and a size 14 xx

by kezjb 21st October 2014, 10:04 am

I'm a 32 band size. I'm a 32DD/E ATM - only 4 days post op. Wore a B cup before but didn't fill it.
I would do the rice test - which has been pretty accurate for me and use that to determine what sort of size you're after.

by Gsyfem1982 21st October 2014, 10:06 am

Ok thank you for your advice! x I will google how to do the rice test x

by kezjb 21st October 2014, 10:09 am

It's on here somewhere.
Basically buy a bra in around the size you want to be I bought a 34D and 34DD and the fill a freezer bag with rice, pop that in your bra and the ml's of rice = cc of implant.
I settled on 320ml rice and had 330 implant (that was the nearest size).

by Gsyfem1982 21st October 2014, 10:57 am

Your a star, how are you finding the pain? I'm a little concerned because I've read a few reviews saying that you use and will need your stomach muscles a lot to help you get up and move after the operation! Whereas this is not going to be an option for me as I'm having a tummy tuck and lipo suction at the same time xx

by WOOWOO55 21st October 2014, 11:42 am

bum shuffle worked well for me lol xx

by Gsyfem1982 21st October 2014, 12:14 pm

Yes but you use your stomach muscles to help you bum shuffle x

by WOOWOO55 21st October 2014, 2:18 pm

lol think you need someone around to help u your haven 2 big ops xx

by kezjb 21st October 2014, 2:59 pm

I am finding the pain fine, not in pain at all - just some discomfort. I went for a 20min walk day two, day 3 went round Sainsbury's and out for lunch and then walked again for an hour, and been for an hours walk today, really hope this lasts cause it's a breeze! Am trying not to nap and sleeping fine too.
I think you would deffo need someone on hand as you do use your belly and bum shuffle to get up from lying down etc as you can't put weight on your arms.

Girls, I'm going to come in and burst bubbles....There is NO way to work out how many CC's will take you to a cup. Certainly the smaller you are, the fewer it takes. But other than that, there is ZERO science. I went AA to E with 340. That makes 7 sizes up (AA>A>B>C>D>DD>E), so only 48.5cc's per cup (Im a 32). A woman with a larger back, or more breast tissue could have a 500+ implant and it only take her up 3 cups.

The rice test is the only semi accurate way to get a feel for how big you'll end up.
