Breast Augmentation/Lifting Results?
At your stage in recovery ( four weeks after surgery), it is much too early to evaluate the end results of surgery. It is possible you will find that as the breast implants “settle”, the nipple/areola complexes will shift upwards. Also as the breast implants settle they will fill in the loose skin of the lower poles of the breasts. These changes may help change your impression that the breasts “look like they are sagging”.

Breast at 4 weeks
From only the side view it is difficult to say exactly what your breasts look like, but they appear to be doing well from this view. The implants need time to settle. As for your bra, you shoudl ask your doctor.

High riding implant early after augmentation mastopexy (breast lift) may make the nipples appear to sag
Every surgeon uses different techniques which may effect the long term healing process and the degree of overcorrection/undercorrection and ultimately the amount of time to reach a stable result. Although your nipples look low giving you a sagging appearance, it is more likely that your implants are high and will settle. This will give the illusion that the nipples have raised by riding above the equator of the implant rather than below as it does in the early phases of healing.

Implants riding high or not enough of a lift
As my title states, too high riding implants vs a inadequate lift. But only 4 weeks, you need to wait at least 3 months total from operation. For high riders do downward exercises. If the lift is not high enough than ONLY a re operation will help. Keep us in the loop.

Say it ain't so
You are not sagging, your implants have not dropped yet. Be patient, if the implants are under the muscle, they start to drop around three to four weeks.
I don't like a bra, I like a band above the implants. However, you must check with your surgeon.

High Implants
I agree with Dr. Rand. your implants are too high in the pocket and they need to be allowed to go lower and center behind the nipple lines. Consult with your Plastic surgeon. Personally, I ask my patients not to wear support for 1-2 weeks after surgery to allow the implants to resume the position I achieved in the OR - centered on the nipple.

After breast lift with breast implants,implants need to be centered under nipples.
Hi.
1) I don't think you have sagging. Unfortunately, there is a little imbalance between your implants (too high) and your nipples (too low).
2) In a few months, you may like the way you look. If not, you may need a revision breast augmentation (with or without revision breast lift). The breast implants can be lowered, the nipples can be raised, or both.
3) We sit the patient up before the end of the operation (you are still asleep, of course) to make sure the shape is great. If...

Sagging after breast augmentation
I can't tell from your photo but I think what you are doing is pushing your implants too high with the tight sports bra. This can make the nipples look low and can make the implants heal too high. I'd stop that asap.
