Choosing the Perfect Breast Implant Size: A Complete Guide for South Shore Patients

One of the most important decisions in breast augmentation is choosing the right implant size. Patients across the South Shore — from Longueuil to Brossard and Boucherville — want results that are natural, flattering, and long-lasting.

Dr. Alain Gagnon uses a precise, personalized approach to help patients select an implant size that enhances their figure without overwhelming their proportions.

Key Factors in Selecting Implant Size

1. Your Chest Width (Breast Base Diameter)
A critical measurement. Ensures the implant fits your anatomy.

2. Your Skin Elasticity
Determines how much volume the breast can hold naturally.

3. Your Lifestyle
Athletes often prefer moderate sizes; others may want fuller volume.

4. Your Body Proportions
Balance between waist, hips, shoulders, and breast volume.

5. Desired Aesthetic
Natural? Subtle? Noticeable? Dramatic?
Every choice is valid — the goal is harmony.

Why “Going Too Big” Causes Problems

Oversized implants can lead to:

• Stretching of tissues
• Early sagging
• Back or shoulder discomfort
• Unnatural proportions

Dr. Gagnon always prioritizes safety and long-term beauty.
