I didn't realize until I downsized that I should have left mine alone. I went into first surgery unprepared so I thought I'd redo and choose a small implant. My keloid scarring condition gave me pain everyday so I equated pain w large implants. Now I see that the size was fine and that the scar was the problem. I'd rather have larger pretty breasts than small tennis balls. 32A HP 450cc 05/12 silicone to HP 300cc 04/13. Now what do I tell the surgeon? Will he let me go back to big?

Answer: Disappointed with downsized look
It sounds like a miscommunication between you and your surgeon. I'm sorry you having to even deal with this. However, I want to reassure you your downsized look is still quite pleasing. Unfortunately, to go back up doesn't guarantee you will have what you had as other issues could develop that could affect your final result. Make sure you really want to pursue the original size due to the costs, risks, and potential complications.

Answer: Regret After Downsizing Breast Implants
Dear Hart2Catch,
Breast augmentation is generally safe, but it is still a surgical procedure and not something to take lightly.
It is certainly possible to upsize your current breast implants, but you need to make sure that you are making a careful and thoughtful decision for yourself.
Warmest wishes,
Larry Fan, MD
