Too large implants... How many ccs do you have to decrease to do a redo operation? (Small implant to start with).

Asked By:lillan in London, GB

I had my breast augmentation 3 months ago, and I feel that they are too large for my small frame. I am only 4'10 tall and about 86 lbs and I chose 190cc mp, which is quite small. I have read that you should go at least 150cc smaller if you want a noticable difference in size. But my implant is only 190. Do you think that choosing maybe 135cc insted would be a good change in size? But perhaps there is no point of going through another operation since the difference is small anyway?
