i found a good way to get the leaves smaller and more to scale with the rest of the tree for the mortin bay fig trees is to peel the pink skin off the leaves before it falls off naturally. You just have to give it a little twist and then pull up. If you have a look you should know what I mean. It will bleed sap a little when you do it but shouldn't be a problem.
I had a few but all died over several years due to cats peeing on them, underwatering, not enough sunshine etc etc...
Now I am in Japan it is unreal to see them around, this guy next door to us has all these tiny temples and heaps of bonsai all around them. to make a mountain landscape

The photo isn't so good, but you can get the idea.
