One of the most commonly used methods in choosing a breast implant size is to view before and after photos on the internet. It can be helpful and a bit inspiring to view the visual effects of various breast implant sizes in this fashion.

While this may be one tool to use in your search for the ideal breast implant size, it should only be one of a series of methods to help you make your decision. I would caution you against relying too much on breast implant before and after photos to help you make your decision.

It is important to consider the following points:

• The perspective view of the photographer can have a dramatic effect on the photo. A slightly lower perspective view can make the image appear larger than life, while a higher perspective may make the image appear smaller.




• The photographic lens size used can impact the depth and dimension of the image. A zoom lens tends to flatten the appearance of the image, and a wide-angle lens can widen the appearance.




• Lighting can vary from one photograph to another and can impact the image. Even a small shadow can dramatically impact the appearance of the breast size in the photo.
  

Photos on the internet are taken by thousands of different photographers in different lighting environments using different cameras. This means that there are thousands of possibilities for variances from one photo to another. This does not mean viewing before and after photos is a poor method to help you in choosing a breast implant size. It simply means you will want to consider the significant limitations when viewing them.

Using before and after photos to help you make a breast implant size decision is a two-dimensional solution to a three-dimensional issue.   If you are considering breast augmentation you owe it to yourself to explore more options for help in determining your new breast size.

The choice in breast implant size goes beyond simple appearance. How will you look in your new clothes in your new breast size? How will you feel about yourself in public? Will you feel better about yourself with a 300cc or 400cc implant? Photos simply cannot thoroughly answer these questions. To achieve a three-dimensional solution requires a breast sizing system that allows you to live with various breast implant sizes in your normal daily activities.
