Is it wise to remove 75-100cc of breast tissue from lower pole with an uplift and implants? (270cc round, under muscle) (photos)

I’m 5ft7, BMI 20.5. 34C, poor elasticity, 2 ptosis, lack breast volume, sitting low in breast. Surgeon wants to remove 100cc tissue from lower pole with 375cc implant. Gives better lift & shape & prevents future drooping/waterfall deformity. Surgeon 2 says removing tissue risks rippling. Waterfall deformity affects women with dense breast tissue (not me). Larger implant risks uplift scars widening and future drooping. If implants removed hard to get good result & left w small boobs.
