Will going from 400cc implants to 230cc with a lift cause a noticeable difference in cup size?

June 3, 2024
Asked By:Skyseawolf in Minneapolis, Minnesota

I decided to replace my implants that were over 14 yo. Because I had breastfed after implants, the surgeon recommended a lift with implants. I was told they would be slightly smaller but close to my current size. I had 400cc and the new implants were 170cc less. Initially the 400cc were a DD. (After breastfeeding DDD due to ptosis). I was told the 230cc was the closest they could get. I went in for implants to start not a reduction. Will this be a big difference in cup size??
