Breast Augmentation Patient Information -
Breast Implants: Size & Fill Level

SIZE VS. FILL LEVEL: Manufacturers usually size saline breast implants over a range of approximately 30 cc; fill to the uppermost end of the range is considered "overfilling". The concept of overfilling has arisen due to changes in manufacturers' labeling of breast implant sizes in response to FDA dictates. Today an implant of size 270 cc to 300 cc would be considered overfilled if filled to a volume of 300 cc. Dr. Zevon believes that correct fill volume is key in the prevention of rippling. Rippling refers to the occurrence of wrinkles, or "ripples" in the skin over a saline breast implant. Accordingly, Dr. Zevon will overfill unless considerations of symmetry or other anatomical issues outweigh issues of fill volume. This means that if you choose to augment your breasts by a volume of 300 cc it may be achieved with a breast implant size 270 cc filled to 300 cc.
