Breast augmentation is one of the most commonly performed procedures in cosmetic surgery. Yet it remains shrouded in persistent misconceptions that can sometimes cause anxiety. Here\u2019s what the scientific literature actually says about it, backed by sources, without marketing hype or generalizations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Can we choose the volume we want?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

False.<\/strong>\u00a0The volume that can be achieved depends primarily on the patient\u2019s breast base. Of course, I aim for the maximum possible, but there is often a limit that must not be exceeded if a natural-looking result is to be maintained. This is not a subjective opinion: it is the foundation of modern planning systems such as Tebbetts\u00ab High Five, which determine the optimal volume based on objective tissue measurements (tissue thickness, skin elasticity, base width), rather than a desired \u00bbcup size.\u201d This system also demonstrates that there is no medical definition of cup size.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
