Will my Implants Appear Smaller Once Swelling Reduces?

June 23, 2011
Asked By:sunshine42 in Laguna Niguel, CA

I just got 450cc silicone breast implants under the muscle. It's only been one week since my surgery but they look HUGE. I'm 5'6, 125 lbs. Now that I have them and they are enormous I'm afraid that maybe I went with too large of an implant. I know that they should appear smaller once the swelling has gone down and once they drop but how much smaller can they actually get? If it's not a dramatic difference then I'm afraid that I went too large. Please tell me they will go way down. Pic attached.
