Breast implant exchange for smaller size?

User Avatar

I had a breast lift and got 300cc mod+ implants 3 months ago. I would like to exchange the implants for a smaller size (200cc) and am wondering if I'll need to have the lift re done? Also, what would the recovery time be? Would it be the same as the first surgery where I could not lift anything heavy for 2 weeks?
