Not Too Happy with my Implant Size

Breast Implants - Not Too Happy with my Implant Size

Hi A bit disappointed, Sort of...but not really. Assuming that you recover as most patients do, the implants will settle over a several month period. They will drop and come forward a bit. However, that process is mostly done by 4 months. While it can take up to 6 months to see the final results, I would expect that you have most of your result by now. It's ABOUT 150-200 cc's per bra cup size, with the lower end for women who are slender, have narrow... more
