As swelling from Breast augmentation subside, will my cup size go down?

I recently had Breast Augmentation about a week ago and they feel huge! I've been told by everyone that the swelling does go down, but how much?

I've received mixed answers and I am starting to get worried that I went too large. I've heard the swelling goes down about a size... is that true? How long will this take? Thank you!!

A: Swelling after breast augmentation

See your surgeon. The internet is no substitute for a godd examination and evaluation by a board-certified plastic surgeon. Do not panic. This may well be normal swelling and you may have the size you were looking for when the swelling subsides. Good luck.

A: Size matters

Seebee, The amount that your swelling goes down depends on the amount of swelling that you have.  Everyone develops a different amount of swelling in response to surgery.
