Question: I currently have 500 cc implants that I have had for over 10 years. I want to go with a smaller implant maybe 375 cc or 400 cc. My breasts are not droopy now, but I have heard that my breast shape will change if I put smaller implants in. Is this true?
Answer: Yes there will be some change in your breast shape if you replace your larger implants with smaller ones. Because you have had the larger implants for a long time the pocket and skin have stretched to accommodate a 500 cc implant. If something smaller is put in that space the larger pocket and extra skin will not have changed and will probably need to be tightened. The breasts may appear a little droopier. Depending on how much breast sag and nipple location you may also benefit from a breast lift with the implant exchange. Once you have had implants for 10 years your breasts are never just going to go back to where they were before surgery. Even without breast implants your natural breast shape would change over 10 years.
