I saw a surgeon wanting implants. He told me I needed a lif and gave me a small implant 265. I wasn’t happy with the size and 18 months later returned for a larger implant (495cc). I have been left with misshapen boobs that are square and flat shaped at the top (like a body builder) and an empty boob underneath which I’ve come to learn is snoopy boob. Am I entitled to a full refund. I don’t feel confident going under the knife with the same surgeon.
