Why did my Plastic Surgeon use smaller Implants? Can I have a second surgery?

fontagious13
I had breast augmentation 1 month ago. At my consultation I asked for 425cc implants. Immediately after surgery I was told she could only place 300cc's. While I'm happy to have larger breasts, I would really like to have larger ones. I am 5'5, 118 lbs. Before surgery I was a 32A. I am not sure what my cup size is now, but I am thinking it may be a small C. Is it common for surgeons to have to go smaller? How soon can I go bigger?
