Surgeon put in implants bigger than I approved - is it reasonable for me to ask him to revise it?

Asked By:allyb25 in St. Louis, Missouri

I had a BA and stated I wanted a natural look as I’m 40 y/o. I just wanted to fill in lost volume from breastfeeding. At the consult the Dr stated a 300cc HP implant would be his recommendation. I am an out of town patient so emailed some final thoughts/wish pics. I specifically stated 300-400cc range. I started with a deflated 34C with the goal of being a full 34C/small D. I woke up with 445 UHP implants. Is it reasonable for me to ask him to revise to a smaller implant at HIS cost?
