The Ballerina Breast Augmentation

Smaller Breast Implants, Big Expectations: Planning for Natural Results

Dr. Alain Polynice discusses the current trend toward smaller breast implants, noting that implant sizes in his practice have shifted from 400–450cc 20 years ago to 300–330cc 10 years ago, and now commonly as small as 175–195cc. He explains that achieving excellent results with less volume requires meticulous preoperative planning, including detailed anatomical examination, measuring base width and breast and nipple-to-fold distances, and assessing skin quality—especially in thinner patients. Choosing the right implant style and profile for the right patient is essential to create a well-shaped breast mound with a natural look. He views this “ballerina augmentation” trend positively because it avoids overstretching the skin and supports better long-term outcomes.
