Confused Over's V Unders

I am slightly confused and now other people are asking me and I am not sure of the answer.

I have heard and read a lot about the fact that "unders" D&F and that you can expect size changes in them as the muscle stretches.

However I am a bit confused about the scenario with "overs"

I have had 500cc silicone textured Overs crease incision:-

Can I expect them to shrink once they settle ( I am currently 38E) or will they stay pretty much as they are or will they get larger as they settle in.

My understanding is that they would be swollen in the beginning and that they would probably end up as 38DD verging on E.

I am getting concerned that there is any possibilty that they will get any larger than they are as I am more than happy with the size becaseu it puts me in proportion and is back to what I once pre children.

Your assistance would be much appreciated.

I was told with overs that the swelling would only last 7 days. It feels like more though. I think that is because of healing and when you over do it, it feels like you are swelling (probably swell a little). They get softer but I do not think once the swelling goes down that the size changes much.

overs

Hi I dont know if my experience is relevant to yours as mine were 300's but I found that they shrank by at least a quarter to a third from what they were on day one. The swelling lasted about three / four weeks . Although people may tell you that with overs what you see is what you get I definately dropped a lot and although I still wear the same size bra I got on week 2 ( 34D) ; the shape and where they sit changed a lot. Became more natural , lower more together etc. I imagine yours will only improve. Hope you stay happy with them!

Thanks that helps loads - I am more than happy for them to decrease a bit and drop down as they are slightly to firm to be believable at the moment (but then wouldn't expect much more for day 6 !).
