One of the first decisions that you’ll make prior to your breast augmentation is what size implants to choose. To help make this decision easier, a new device is harnessing virtual reality technology to let women “try on” their breast implants before their procedure.
Read on to learn more about how this new technology would work, and to get a few helpful hints for choosing the perfect breast implant size for your new look.
New Technology to Help with Breast Augmentation Sizing
For many women, it can be difficult to visualize what their new breasts will look like after their breast enhancement. This is why developers have recently launched a 3D virtual reality headset and accompanying app that allows women to look down at their own bodies and see their new breast implants before moving forward with their breast augmentation.
The device is currently only in trial use at a clinic in the UK, but the hope is that, in the future, it will be accessible to women everywhere considering breast augmentations.

In the meantime, there are a few tips you can keep in mind to help you choose the perfect size for your breast augmentation, even without virtual reality goggles.
Remember that breast implants are measured in cubic centimeters of volume, not by cup size. So try to avoid getting hung up on what bra size you’ll be post-breast enhancement. Instead, think of breast augmentation sizing in terms of highlighting your body’s natural curves and proportions.
Implants that are much too large for your frame could create unbalanced results, whereas a more modest implant size may give you the boost of volume you want while still appearing balanced.
