Do I need a revision or lift? Mentor, UHP 270cc, told I would be a C, more like full B (Photos)

Asked By:vgopaul26 in Stuart, FL

Currently have Mentor memory gel smooth round ultra high profile implants 270cc. 2 years post op feel like I could have gone bigger like 320cc. Surgeon chose the size for me, at the time of surgery I was 5ft and 140lbs, told I would be brought to a full C feel more like full B. His concerns were not going too big because of my height, sagging, and longevity of implants. Asymmetry is more noticeable and left breast has a higher projection no cleavage breast sit low and bottom heavy. What is recommended to correct this? Do I need a lift. Could go bigger? also looking to to lose 40lbs before next revision if needed, does that affect size?
