Which Size of Breast Breast Implant Should I Choose?

One of the more common questions patients ask during a breast augmentation consultation is: “What implant size should I go for?” This, of course, is going to be one of the most personal and important decisions you’ll make when deciding on breast enlargement surgery.

The goal with augmentation isn’t just bigger breasts, it’s about achieving a balanced, natural look that enhances your body shape and boosts your confidence. 

Plastic Surgeon Sherif Wilson aims to help you achieve a result that you are going to feel comfortable and happy with for years to come. This article contains the key things to consider when choosing your breast implant size. We are here to help you feel informed and confident about your decision.

How to Choose the Right Size Breast Implants for Your Body

There’s no such thing as a “perfect size” that suits everyone, and of course, bigger is not already better. The best results come from choosing a size that fits your body proportions, lifestyle, and aesthetic goals.

While you might come across cup size comparisons online, implants are actually measured in volume (ccs) — and two women with the same size implants can look totally different depending on their height, frame, and existing breast tissue.

Mr Wilson always takes a personalised approach to breast augmentation. During your consultation, he’ll look at factors such as:

• Your height and weight
• Your chest width and shoulder shape
• The amount of natural breast tissue you already have
• Skin elasticity and breast symmetry
• Your lifestyle (e.g., are you very active or athletic?)

The result? A size that suits your body and looks like you, but better!

Do You Want a Natural Look? Then Focus on Proportion

If your goal is natural looking breast implants, proportion is key to achieve the right balance for your body. A size that complements your frame will always look more natural than one that overwhelms it.

Some people want a subtle enhancement, enough to fill out clothes and feel more balanced, while others want a fuller, more dramatic curve. There’s no right or wrong answer, but going too large for your body type can increase the risk of complications like sagging or discomfort, especially as time goes by.

If you decide to book a breast augmentation consultation with Sherif Wilson will help guide you through the options to ensure the final result looks and feels right for you, both now and in the future.

Think About The Profile: It’s Not Just About Volume

Implants don’t just come in different sizes — they also come in different profiles, which affect how far the implant projects from the chest. For example:

• Low profile implants are flatter and wider
• High profile implants are rounder and project more
• Moderate profile implants are somewhere in the middle

Again, the best choice depends on your body and the look you’re going for. Some women with narrower chests may benefit from a higher profile to get that fullness without needing a larger size.

The Most Popular Sizes for Implants in the UK

While there’s a huge range of options available, many women in the UK opt for breast implants in the 250cc–350cc range. This tends to give a noticeable but still natural result. If you’re starting with very little natural tissue, a smaller implant might be best to maintain a realistic look and avoid stretching the skin too quickly.

Remember, it’s not about aiming for a particular cup size — it’s about finding the best implant size for your body and lifestyle.
