Boobs still too big after I downsized from 400cc to 235cc. PS claims we cannot go smaller. Is this correct? (Photo)

Asked By:Katie_92 in Montreal, QC

Had Mentor HP 400/425cc implants replaced to downsize to tiny breasts (GOAL: A/B cup, Kate Moss Look). Showed my PS photos and stressed that I want to look X-small (max. 220cc), but ended up with a full looking chest (got Natrelle Inspira, Low-Plus Profile 235/250cc). PS claims because of Diameter limitations (now 11.75/12) we cannot go smaller. Is this true? What about Low-Profile w/ same diameter? I am 7 days post-OP, can there be significant swelling present (after minimal pocket adjustment)?
