What to Do About Breasts That Look Like Cones After Implants?

I just had a lift with 250'cc silicone implants over the muscle one week ago. I was a very droopy B cup but now my boobs look like torpedos!? should they be this pointy ? Also they look very uneven. Will I be a Full C once they settle? Im worried I may have chosen a bad surgeon,help! :(

Breasts that look like cones after implants

You should wait for at least 3 months after the operation to evaluate. My guess is you will need additional correction. Sorry From MIAMI Dr. B

Breast Augmentation and Lift

I am concerned with the way things look right now, but at this point you just need to wait and see how everything pans out. I would wait for 4-6 months before considering revision surgery. I also am not sure why you have the steri-strip tape accross your breast but i would be careful that it does not cause a blister or skin tear as it looks very tight around the tape. Good luck.

Augmentation mastopexy concerns

Unfortunately now is not the time to second guess your choice of surgeon. It is very early and it is quite likely that your breasts will settle with time. I would not make any drastic decisions at this time. Your best option is to give it time for the results (at least 4 months but 9 months in my opinion).  It is difficult to second guess another surgeon's choice or intra-operative decisions and I would continue to see your surgeon and follow his/her advice. more

Breast lft and breast implants in New York City.

Hi. 1) Based on the one picture, I am sorry to say that you may not have a satisfactory final result. I am particularly concerned about the folds under your breasts. 2) There is nothing to do now. And your breasts will definitely change over time after a breast lift with breast implants. It is possible that you will be happy in a few months. If not, you may have to consider a revision.

Early results after breast lift and implants

While your result is early, I must say that I am concerned about the look you are showing. Your right shoulder might be being held a little low but the nipple areola on that side are wider and lower than the left. Also, considering that you have the full inverted "T" incisions, the tayloring doesn't look artistic and the crosswise wrinkling of the skin doesn't look good. It looks like your implant is bottoming out on the left side as the incision is up on the lower pole... more

It appears that you have had a mastopexy with implants. The early results are usually not indicative of the final results. It is best to let some time pass before evaluating your results. It appears that your results will be good cosmetically.

My Breasts Appear Like Torpedos - Will This Improve?

Without a complete face to face physical exam, it is very difficult from your one picture to know exactly what is going on. The steri strip your surgeon has placed towards the bottom of your breasts has confused many of your expert Real Self plastic surgeons. There is no bottoming out of your implants, and in fact, your breasts will settle more and the torpedo appearance will resolve over the next couple of months. There does appear to be a slight asymmetry of your... more

Lift and implants

It is way too early to say what they will look like in three months.  Give it some time. With alot of skin laxity you may need skin removal in the lower pole if things do not settle out.

I am now 2 yrs post op , and happy to say my results were not as bad as expected (by looking back at this picture thank God!) But not 100% happy w/them. My right breast is slightly larger and also I have a small capsule so it appears a little rounder. The left side is more natural looking , but noticeably smaller. My surgeon should have given me two different size implants to make them more symetric.
