I had a breast lift and augmentation 3 weeks ago. I am not happy about the shape right now. They are not rounded at the incisions. Will the flat spots fill in as my implants drop?
Answer: Tight fold and flatness under lift augmentation My feeling is similar to that of Dr. Seckel. The crease appears to be reinforced,and usually when we do something like that, the rather sharply defined ( and often over done) crease relaxes over time, often within six weeks; irregularities smooth out, and the implants drop. However careful follow up with your plastic surgeon would be time well invested. You should keep in mind this is a little like watching grass grow. Change is imperceptible on a day by day basis, but is often quite dramatic if you review serial photos.Maybe posting another set for both other patients and for followup to the doctors who have contributed would be of value.Again, if things don't settle satisfactorily over several months, your plastic surgeon will be of the most help. Be patient.

Answer: Flat spots after breast lift and augmentation should become round over the next 3 months The flat spots appear to be caused by your surgeons attempt to preserve your inframammary crease and prevent bottoming out.My guess is that over the next 3 months the implant will drop and fill out the medial portion of your breast and that the area of the looks flatten out will become rounded. If it does not a simple revision is possible.

Answer: Odd breast shape Thank you for your pictures. That is an odd area beneath your breast. Hopefully within the next 2 1/2 months the way to the implants will help stretch that out. I also recommend massaging that area to soften and loosen the tissue.

Answer: Post augmentation mastopexy Your breasts still look pretty swollen and the implants are sitting high up on your chest. The swelling will subside and implants typically drop but perhaps not enough to fill in the "flat spots" you mention. You should follow up with your surgeon to get his or her opinion about what is going on.

Answer: Flat spots under breast implants: will they fill in as my implants drop? Maybe but I doubt. You need fat grafts with rigotomies to correct those areas in my over the internet opinion...
