Answer: Downsizing implants
Most likely you will be a good candidate for a reduction of your implant size to 300 cc. It is not a bad idea to deflate your current implants to allow the breast to contract a little and the existing capsule to shrink down. This can be done under local anesthesia. In most cases like this I would the replace the smaller implant in about 6 weeks.

Answer: Going to a Smaller Impant
Of course you can go with a smaller implant, if that is what you are looking for. The pocket has been stretched to support the implant you now have, so the surgeon would need to tighten the pocket to fit/support the smaller implant, this is called a capsulorraphy. Keep in mind, each patient is different and depending on what size you are, if they are “sagging” etc, a lift may be needed. You should look for a Plastic Surgeon who is skilled in reconstruction of the breast pocket and consistently gets a good aesthetic result. The best plan would be to do some research in your area and consult with a Plastic Surgeon to have an examination of your particular options.
