If I want to replace my implants with a bigger size, can I hope for a big discount? Can it be completed with local anesthesia?

April 21, 2019
Asked By:Venusia in Boston, MA

I just had a breast augmentation with Natrelle 275cc under the muscle. They turned out very small. I took a picture when I was doing sizing and was happy how 250cc sizers look in my surgical bra in a tight dress. The nurse told me that is how exactly I am going to look. It is not the case at all. I feel like I was misinformed and mislead. I can’t stop crying.
