Newport Beach Breast Implants – Smaller Revision?

February 11th, 2009

Getting smaller implants – 700cc to 500cc feasible?

 

Hi. Four years ago I made the stupid choice of getting 700cc (Round smooth silicone, high profile, 14.4 x 6.2cm)breast implants. I am a tall girl, 5′ 81/2″ and 135 lbs. I wear a 36 band bra. My current cup size is WAY to large! My breasts look extremely fake and i am very self-conscious. Before the 700cc implants I had 400 cc anatomical implants to correct tubular A cups that were also asymetrical. I felt the 400ccs were too small. The 400cc (12.5 cm x 13 cm x 4.9cm) implants were submuscular and looked very natural, they were just small on my broad frame and seemed to be 10 miles apart. I got the 700cc implants to get a cleavage. I hate the high profile, they look really fake and I wanted a natural look. I am getting a revision soon and the doctor recommended Mentor Moderate plus profile, size 450 or 500cc smooth round silicone implants. The dimension of the 450cc implants is 13.6 x 4.2, the 500cc is 14.1 x 4.3cm. I would like a small D, right now I wear a 36D but I know it’s the wrong size because the bra cups fit on the breasts like a baseball cap. I just want breasts that look “real”. He said he would have to do a lift (hopefully just around the areola). Do you think going from 700cc to 450 or 500cc is feasible? Can this still produce pretty breasts that look “real”? What is your experience with downsizing?

It is always possible to downsize your implants, but it may not always be the right thing.  In your case, you mention that you previously had 400cc anatomical breast implants but was not satisfied with the size.  450 or 500 cc moderate plus implants will not be much bigger than the 400s you had before.

Ask your surgeon to place several temporary sizers during surgery to help you achieve a nice balance and result you are seeking.
