I met with my doctor for another consultation and he seems pretty set on 400 cc high profile. But he says I have room to go bigger but I would have a lot of stretch marks if I went any bigger than 400. how do I convince him that I’m OK with not having enough skin if he says that I have enough room for a bigger implant? I really would like a 500 cc.
