My Implants Are Not Quite As Large As I Had Expected.

NYCgirl85
I am 5'2 and 126 lbs. I recieved 450 cc round submuscular natrelle implants. When I first unzipped my sports bra to peak about 3 hours after surgery I noticed they are quite smaller than what I had expected, and do not look considerably larger than what I started off with. Is there a chance they will appear any larger once they have dropped? Or is what I see now pretty much what I am going to get size-wise even once they have dropped?
