43, 5'8, 136lbs, 385 & 355cc too big & rippling, what is possible for my situation? (Photos)

Asked By:betterthanbefore in Winters, Texas

I'm 43 / 5'8 / 136lbs. My surgery was 6/23 w/ Sientra: Silicone Mod+ 385/355 Smooth/Round. I shared my goal pics w/ my Dr, asked for smaller implants and said rippling was my biggest concern. He insisted on over the muscle. I truly dislike my result, they are too big w/ constant inner cleavage rippling. I want to avoid a lift if I can. What is a possible solution for my situation? And what type of implants might be better suited for my initial goal? To clarify my surgery was 6/18/23 and I'm currently considering going down 100cc I'd like to go down more but I've been told that is the most I can downsize without having to get a lift.
