Seattle Breast Augmentation Revision Doctor Recommendations

I had breast implant revision surgery recently to replace saline implants which visibly wrinkled. I have very little breast tissue and therefore chose the Mentor CPG "gummy bear" implant. These implants even looked more wrinkled from the thicker folds of the shell.

I am 48. I am 5'6", 118 pounds. According to my surgeon, I have less breast tissue than anyone he has ever seen. I went from an athletic 32AA to a 34 DDD and I feel way out of proportion. He had to keep filling the shell with saline until there were no visible wrinkles.

I live by Seattle, Washington state. Is there a surgeon out there willing to try to give me smaller more natural looking breast? Thank you.
