Hello Ell,
Speaking from 23 years of experience as a plastic surgeon, it is most important for you to calm down and take a deep breath. There are many reasons why you look bigger than anticipated.
For the first couple of weeks following your surgery, it is expected that you will experience bruising and swelling which definitely contributes to a larger appearance. Not only do you look bigger, but I am certain you FEEL bigger due to the features of an augmentation and breast lift.
Over the next three to four months the muscle and skin will stretch and the implants will settle to a slightly lower level. See your plastic surgeon on a frequent basis and discuss your concerns with him--maintain your trust and confidence.
If after three-four months you still feel too big, only then should you consider exchanging the implants for smaller ones. Typically, this is a much smaller and easier operation.
Thanks for your question.
