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.

Answer: Repeat surgeries I am sorry that you feel you're still small and need to have replacement to be larger in size. This happens nationwide to about 10% of patients (estimated figures). It is usually the patient's responsibility to bear some of the cost of this and a frank and calm talk with your surgeon can certaily help. Dr. Prousti's advice is excellent below. Hope this helps.

Answer: 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? Without posted before and after photos (all views), knowing exactly when you had your surgery- it's difficult to comment accurately. Generally speaking, if you had your surgery within a week or so- I would give it more time and re-evaluate at around 3-4 months. I am not a proponent of having a major surgery performed under local. However, if you insist on going larger- you should discuss it with your Operating Surgeon. Keep in mind that this is a new operation with all of its associated fees
