I had a breast lift and breast augmentation w/ 375cc implants. I was originally a saggy B but now (7 days post-op) I am mortified at how big they look. I feel like a porn star. My husband is freaking becuase of the money we've already spent but I just couldn't go through life like this. What options do I have? Can the current implants be "deflated" in some way?
At only one week postop you are swollen and distorted. Given time, the implants will settle and the tissues will accomodate. Although I don't know what your body looks like, in general a 375cc implant is not huge and should result in a size you are confortable with. You will know what this implant will look like at the 4 month point. If it is still too big, you could work with your surgeon to decrease the size.
You are almost certainly still quite swollen at 7 days after surgery. I would recommend relaying your thoughts to your surgeon so that he or she can be aware of your concerns, but I think you have a very good chance of the size going down.
I would discourage doing anything drastic at this point-- implants can be dowsized, but I would wait several months before entertaining this option, and the liklihood is that in the meantime the size will become more acceptable to you.
