Breast Implant CC Size Chart
Use this interactive reference to understand how different implant volumes (CC) relate to cup size increases. Remember: CC-to-cup conversions are approximate — results vary significantly by body type, placement, and profile.
There is no reliable universal conversion between CC volume and bra cup size. Cup sizes vary across brands, and the same CC volume looks completely different depending on your chest width, body fat, tissue elasticity, implant profile, and placement. This chart provides general guidance — your surgeon's measurements and recommendations are what matter.
CC Volume to Cup Size Reference
Approximate cup size increase from starting size. Based on average body frame with submuscular placement.
| CC Volume | Approximate Cup Change | Projection Level | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 150–200 cc | Small A → Full A/Small B | Subtle | Very natural. Minimal visible change in clothing. |
| 200–250 cc | A → B | Subtle–Moderate | Natural enhancement. Noticeable but not dramatic. |
| 250–300 cc | A/B → Full B/Small C | Moderate | Most popular "natural" range. Fills out clothing nicely. |
| 300–350 cc | B → C/D | Moderate | Very popular size range. Noticeable enhancement. |
| 350–400 cc | B/C → D | Moderate–High | Fuller look. Most popular range overall. |
| 400–450 cc | B/C → D/DD | High | Significant enhancement. Requires adequate tissue. |
| 450–500 cc | C → DD/E | High | Large enhancement. Body frame must accommodate. |
| 500–550 cc | C/D → E/F | Very High | Very large. Increased complication risk discussed. |
| 550–650 cc | D → F+ | Very High | Extra large. Careful patient selection required. |
| 650–800 cc | D+ → G+ | Maximum | Largest available. Significant surgical considerations. |
Recommendations by Body Type
General sizing guidance based on body frame. Your surgeon will refine these recommendations based on precise measurements.
Petite Frame
Narrow chest — higher profile gives adequate projection without overly wide implant.
Average Frame
Widest range of options. Most implant sizes and profiles work well.
Athletic Frame
Well-developed chest muscle may affect projection. Submuscular placement considerations.
Larger Frame
Wider chest accommodates wider-base implants. Moderate profile avoids excessive projection.
Important Sizing Facts
- Each breast is different — you may need different CC volumes for each side to achieve symmetry.
- Higher profile = more projection from a narrower base. Lower profile = wider, more subtle spread.
- Submuscular placement can make implants appear slightly smaller than subglandular placement.
- 3D imaging and sizer try-ons during consultation are far more accurate than CC-to-cup charts.
- Don't choose a size based on someone else's results — body proportions make every outcome unique.
