The #1 Mistake Women Make When Seeking a Breast Augmentation
Choosing to enhance your breasts is exciting, but there’s one major mistake many women make before they even step into a consultation: they focus on a specific implant size instead of understanding what actually fits their anatomy.
Most patients arrive with a number in mind — 300cc, 350cc, maybe a photo of someone else’s result. The intention is good, but the assumption is flawed. The same implant won’t look the same on every woman. Your chest width, breast footprint, tissue quality, and even ribcage shape all influence how an implant will look on you.
When women chase a “size” rather than a “fit,” they risk:
- A result that doesn’t match their expectations
- Implants that overpower their frame
- Premature sagging from too much weight
- Needing a revision sooner than expected
At Westlake Plastic Surgery, we solve this problem with a simple but powerful approach: the try-on sizing method. You stand in front of a full-length mirror, try different sizers under clothing, and instantly see how your entire figure changes. You’re not guessing — you’re deciding with clarity.
The goal isn’t a number.
The goal is a beautiful, natural, well-balanced result that looks like you, only better.
If you’re considering a breast augmentation, focus less on CCs and more on choosing a surgeon who understands anatomy, proportion, and long-term aesthetics. That’s how you get results you’ll love for years to come.
