I got my implants 6 days ago. How Soon Can I Explant?

Brooklet
I got my implants 6 days ago. I have wanted them removed since Day 1. I am not even sure why I had them put in, more for my husband, and I thought I could live with it but I can't. It is causing me to be extremely depressed. I saw my PS on Day 4 and he says that I must wait 3 months to safely have them removed under the anethesia. Is this true or can I have them safely removed sooner? I feel I need to have the removed asap.
