| Options for Implant Size |  The best way breast augmentation patients can search their options for implant size ahead of undergoing surgery is to follow the recommendations from the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS) and the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS):
Open Two-way Communication
From the very beginning you have to set up between you and your plastic surgeon clear communication. In order to arrange this you have to be frank and open in discussing size of your future implants.
Pick several photographs from magazines showing up perfect proportions, and present these to your plastic surgeon as a method to start the communication process. The examples should be of individuals with a similar body type to yours.
Desirable Results
Don’t describe your desirable breast size only in terms of bra-cup size. Cup size can differ considerably amongst bra styles and manufacturers.
Sometimes plastic surgeons have implants in the office that are used for patients to “try on” different sizes by cramming them into their bra. At home you can do the same, simply use plastic bags filled with oatmeal, and see how different sizes look in various types of clothing.
Hard-nosed Expectations
Hold to hard-nosed goals and don’t think that bigger is always better. Bear in mind that too large implants are not only will distress the aesthetic balance of your figure, they also tend to sag and finally give you a matronly look. The best way is to choose implants that will look like a natural part of your body.
