When it comes to breast augmentation, one of the most common questions we hear is: “What size should I go for?”
And it’s a good question — because implant size isn’t just a number. It’s a deeply personal decision that affects how you look, how you feel, and how your results suit your body in the long term.
At Cosmedicare, we take implant sizing seriously — not only because we want you to love your outcome, but because it’s one of the only aspects of surgery that can’t be covered under revision policies. That means it’s essential to take your time, explore your options, and make the right choice for you.
There’s No One-Size-Fits-All
You’ve probably seen implant sizes listed in CCs (cubic centimetres) — but that number alone doesn’t tell the full story. Two people with the same implant size may end up with very different results depending on:
- Their height, weight and body shape
- Breast tissue and skin elasticity
- Chest width and breast base diameter
- Personal goals (subtle enhancement vs dramatic volume)
That’s why we don’t make assumptions — we make plans, together.
Visualise Your Results with Crisalix 3D Imaging
We’re proud to offer Crisalix 3D simulation technology as part of your consultation. This innovative system allows you to:
- See a 3D preview of how different implant sizes and profiles may look on your own body
- Compare shapes (round vs anatomical), volumes and projections in real time
- Understand how choices affect symmetry, cleavage, and proportion
Crisalix helps take the guesswork out — so you’re not imagining the result, you’re seeing it.
Try on Sizers in Clinic
Alongside Crisalix, we give you the opportunity to physically try on sizers under clothing during your consultation. This gives you a feel for how different volumes look and move on your frame — helping bridge the gap between numbers and reality.
Some patients are surprised at how much smaller or larger an implant feels in person compared to online expectations — which is why this step is so valuable.
Why Sizing Isn’t Covered Under Revision Policies
It’s important to know that implant size dissatisfaction is not considered a complication or clinical failure, which means:
- If you change your mind about size after surgery, it wouldn’t be covered under any standard revision policy
- Revision would be considered a new procedure and would incur a new cost
- This is why we encourage you to take time, ask questions, and avoid rushing the process
