Hello. I wanted a lift, but the surgeon suggested a small implant would save scarring. I started with UK 34DD breasts, and I think he used 350cc round implants. Over time, I've gained weight. I love my curvier figure, except for my breast! They are 36G and enormous. I had c5/6 disc replacement, so for pain reasons I want them smaller. What are some good options to discuss at consultation? Will they still be too big after explant?
