I had a BL/BA almost 8 weeks ago. While I know it's still very early, I really wish they were smaller. I'm 5'2" 135lbs BWD 13 and I have 400cc Mentor HP. It's very apparent there was a pretty big miscommunication between myself and my surgeon. I really wish I would've shown her pictures of my goals. Anyway, is it possible to exchange to smaller under local anesthesia? Would this be considered as easy surgery? Please help! I'm miserable.

Since this will be your 5th surgery and your surgeon knows what type of revisions have been done, please ask your surgeon. Most women who have implants cannot go braless because of the weight on their breast tissue.
Your tissue may still be too thin to support much weight. You may need to go even smaller and consider a muscle or capsular flap for support. Please discuss this with your surgeon or see one who does a lot of revisions for bottoming out from heavy implants.
Just looking at your photos, it appears that the implants chosen are too large for your tissue and are still sitting high. You may have a capsule holding them up as well. the ones on the left may be too large for you. Going smaller will give a more natural look and be less stress on your tissues.
