Patients often ask how much they can increase their cup size with breast augmentation. Generally, most can expect an increase of 1 to 3 cup sizes, with subtle and dramatic enhancement options based on personal preferences and physical suitability.
Dr. Alexey Markelov combines surgical expertise with a personalized approach to help you achieve your aesthetic goals. The increase in cup sizes depends on your anatomy, lifestyle, and desired outcome. With Dr. Markelov's attention to detail and patient-centered care, you'll receive expert guidance to make informed decisions for natural, beautiful results.
Key Factors That Determine Cup Size Increase
1. Starting Breast Size and Tissue
- Your natural breast size and the amount of existing breast tissue play a significant role
- Patients with more breast tissue may achieve a larger and more proportional increase
2. Implant Volume
- Breast implants are measured in cubic centimeters (cc), not cup sizes
- As a general guideline, an increase of 150–200 cc typically equates to about one cup size, but this can vary depending on body type
3. Body Frame and Chest Anatomy
- The width of your chest, the elasticity of your skin, and the shape of your rib cage determine how much your body can comfortably accommodate
- A skilled surgeon will recommend implants that complement your proportions for natural-looking results
4. Lifestyle and Goals
- Your activity level, personal style, and long-term goals influence implant size selection
- For example, an active individual may prefer a smaller, lighter implant to avoid interference with physical activities
5. Desired Aesthetic
- Whether you’re looking for a subtle enhancement or a dramatic change, Dr. Markelov will work with you to create a tailored plan that aligns with your vision
Why Cup Size Isn’t an Exact Metric
It’s important to note that bra cup sizes are not standardized across brands and are, therefore, not a precise way to measure implant size. Instead, Dr. Markelov will focus on implant volume (cc), projection, and width to determine the best option for your anatomy and desired outcome.
He uses advanced techniques and years of experience to ensure your chosen implant size enhances your figure while maintaining a natural and balanced appearance. During your consultation, Dr. Markelov will consider your goals, body type, and lifestyle to recommend the most suitable implant size and style.
