Shahram Salemy, MD answers: What happens after my breast reduction?

What happens if I have my 690cc breast implants (D cup) I got 2 weeks ago removed, and get my old 390cc (C cup) ones? Will my breasts look stretched if I change to a smaller size implant? I need help I hate the size of my new implants.

It can certainly be done, but I think it's important to understand the risks involved, the biggest one being that you may not be happy with the old/smaller size.  Have a very thorough discussion with your surgeon so that you are both on the same page as to the goals of the procedure prior to going back tot he OR.

 If you REALLY want to do this, your skin should be okay.  This kind of ping pong however is bad and either represents poor communication with your doctor on his or her part or on your part.
