My breast implants are only 3 months old, and I love how natural they look, but one breast is hanging much lower than the they and I can grab a lot of skin underneath my breasts.

I would have your surgeon look at this. The picture appears to show a visible portion of the permanent white periareolar suture located just to the right of the "bunched" up skin. This may be just a photo artifact, but I would recommend you have it checked.
Dear Kadey,The pectoralis muscle is connected to the sternum in the midline. Under the muscle implants cause the muscle to stretch and given this connection to the sternum it is very common to have discomfort there for a couple weeks. Always discuss your symptoms with your surgeon.
I do think implants do "settle and soften" which is what it appears you mean by "drop and fluff". This is related to the swelling of the pectoralis muscle and tightness of the skin envelope which resolves over a few weeks.
The natural look of the implants takes several weeks and the soft feel...
