Downsizing Due to Double Capsule/Late Seroma?

My original implants are 354cc textured mods over the muscle. I was hospitalized due to infection 2.5 years po. Now I'm having them removed and want 240 or 270cc smooth round, same profile overs. Im a full 36 D and never wanted to be this large. I look fat all the time. My ps says I don't need a lift. And my tissue is very good. I'm just hoping this brings me down to a small C or large B. Pre BA I was 36 B without volume on top. Im 5'6 145 lbs. Please tell me this will get me where I want to be. Thanks
