If you are not happy with the final look of your breast augmentation then yes, definitely speak with your surgeon. Best, Dr. Nazarian

I appreciate your question.

If your are not happy with the final results of your breast augmentation, I would recommend that you discuss this with your surgeon to review your options together.

The best way to assess and give
true advice would be an in-person exam.

Please see a board-certified
plastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic and restorative breast surgery.

Best of luck!

Dr. Schwartz

If you are at all unhappy with your breasts following surgery, I recommend that you discuss this with your surgeon.Your surgeon can compare and contrast the different sizes and shape of breast implants with you.Also, the fact that the photo you showed says medium profile doesn't mean much. What is does mean is that the profile is in the middle of profiles FOR MOTIVA IMPLANTS. The differences in implants between different implant manufactures can be great. There is no industry standard for profile.

David R. Alfonso, MD, FACS · Answer

If you have concerns about the type of implant placed during your surgery the best thing is to meet with your surgeon to discuss your concerns and see where that gets you.  It is always better to get the details from your surgeon in person

Hello dear, thanks for your question and provided information with pictures as well...I suggest you to call your surgeon because if your doctor tell you that you will have a type, that has to be that type. Get a conversation with your surgeon and talk about a plan
