Downsizing Implants by 45cc?

Thank you for the question.

Given that youa re only one month out of your breast augmentation surgery, I would suggest that you exercise continued patience and allow for ongoing healing/adaptation to occur. I would suggest that you wait at least 3 to 6 months after the breast augmentation procedure to evaluate the results of surgery and whether or not revisionary surgery will be beneficial.

There are both physiological and “psychological” reasons to wait on having  revisionary surgery. From the physiological standpoint, it takes many months ( and even up to one year) to see the final results of surgery. Factors such as swelling,  tissue contraction,  skin redraping,  implant shifting etc. come into play.

From the psychological standpoint, patients undergo an “adaptation period"  during which time they get used to the changes that the surgical procedure has brought about.  Severe emotional swings can also occur after any type of surgical procedure.
Obviously, it is best for patients not to be making important decisions ( for example about the results of surgery and/or the need for additional surgery) while they are experiencing these emotional “ups and downs”.

Although it is not possible to give you precise device without direct examination reviewing pictures, generally speaking 45 mL  change in volume is unlikely to result in a significant change in breast size.

 I hope this helps.

 

  

You actually sound like you would be best served with a high profile implant.  The decrease in volume is a great plan to avoid the "heavy feeling", but the volume alone is not likely to make you completely happy.  I do believe you should wait another month for the internal healing around the implant to occur.  If you still feel the same way, choose to down size and go with a high profile implant. Good Luck on your choice!!
