The patient has a preconceived idea of what her ideal bust size would like to be. Typically, the images in her mind are derived from magazines, television shows and perhaps friends who have had the surgical procedure. She generally thinks of bust cup sizes. The surgeon, on the other hand, thinks of bust volumes in terms of cc’s and implant sizes.
