Breasts too Far Apart. 3 Days Post Op, Will They Get Closer Together?

Much much too early ,ONLY 3 days, to determine if your breasts are too far apart. Allow at least 3 months of healing and compression exercises medially.

What is the right amount of cleavage?

Hello, Thank you for the photos. When an implant is placed under the muscle there is a point where the implant cannot be placed any further toward the center since the muscle attaches near the sternum (breast bone).

It is very likely that the appearance of the breasts will change (for the better) over the course of the next few months. Based on your pictures, I think your plastic surgeon has attempted to place the implants as close to the midline ( for improved cleavage) as much as safely possible. For example, if you note the position of the nipple/areola... more
