Will changing the projection of my implants give me a more modest appearance?

Kdsheila
I've given myself nearly two years to adjust to my implants, without success. Currently, I have Sientra, high projection, shaped, 235 and 255cc implants. Projection 5.1 and 5.2 cm. Diameter 10.1 and 10.4. They are just too much! I wear a sports bra constantly to minimize. Is switching to a round, moderate plus implant like 235 cc, projection 3.9, diameter 10.5 a reasonable idea to achieve a less pronounced look and still maintain some volume? Please help! I'm sick of sports bras Thank you!
