What’s driving this new aesthetic preference? Shifting fitness trends and everyday practicality. Many women want enhancements that suit their active lifestyles, prioritizing comfort and subtle confidence instead of exaggeration. As a result, average implant sizes have decreased significantly, trending toward smaller, more natural choices.
Nowhere is this more obvious for us than in our own Seattle plastic surgery clinic. We’re seeing our own patients drawn to smaller, more natural-looking, more understated breast implants that harmonize with each patient’s natural frame. Would you have guessed the most popular breast implant size for our patients is now 185cc? Where our breast augmentation patients used to favor 300-400cc sized breast implants years ago, our most popular implant size is now just 185cc, a dramatic 38% decrease!
“Many patients are now opting for smaller implants to achieve a more subtle, natural enhancement rather than a dramatic augmentation. This trend reflects a growing desire for results that complement their natural proportions while still providing a refreshed and confident look.”
