I'm 3 weeks ago post. I wanted big C or small D but natural looking. I work out and I'm a teacher so kind of conservative. My Surgeon used 450 cc in left and 475cc in right Allergen 20 HP. Now I am depressed. They look huge and super fake. I'm going to Hawaii in July for a once in a lifetime trip and I don't even want to take pictures with these [RS bleep] star boobs. Will they drop or will I really have a [RS bleep] star look. You can be honest with me because I'm seriously considering a revision.

Answer: Implants Too Big for me? I'm sorry to hear about the concerns you have after your procedure. You should be aware that a significant percentage of patients at your stage of recovery will feel that they are too big or (more commonly) too small. I routinely ask my patients to wait at least 3-6 months before evaluating the end results of the breast augmentation surgery. This waiting time allows patients to (usually) physically and psychologically adapt to the new body image. There are both physiological and “psychological” reasons to wait on having revisionary surgery. From the physiological standpoint, it takes many months (and even up to one year) to see the final results of surgery. factors such as swelling, tissue contraction, skin redraping, implant shifting etc. come into play.From the psychological standpoint, patients undergo an “adaptation period" during which time they get used to the changes that the surgical procedure has brought about. Severe emotional swings can also occur after any type of surgical procedure. Obviously, it is best for patients not to be making important decisions ( for example about the results of surgery and/or the need for additional surgery) while they are experiencing these emotional “ups and downs”. In your case, I would suggest continued patience. Continue to follow-up with your plastic surgeon. Best wishes.

Answer: Implants The implants look fine. If you feel that they are too big for you then they can always be exchanged. They will change over the next few months as the swelling goes away and they settle a bit more.
