Why do so many women say after surgery that they wish that they had gone larger?
Sometimes, a mistake has been made in selecting the size of implant prior to surgery. In addition, many women get used to the swelling that occurs after surgery. This goes down in a few weeks or months after surgery. At the same time, some of the natural breast tissue shrinks due to compression caused by pressure from the implant. This happens more in some patients than in others and is very difficult to predict. It is important to remember that larger implants, while making the breasts larger, also make them look and feel more fake. It can be a fine line in selecting the size of implant; whats more important to you, smaller and more natural or larger and less natural?
