Tags: under muscle, 2 years post-op, 650-699cc, drop, hard
The implants are mentor.. They still feel hard, they are positioned too high and too far apart.. This may be due to my chest structure which is birdlike.. My question is - will they drop with time and what should i do to obtain cleavage? Any answer will be deeply appreciated, thank you!

Breast Implant Revision after 2 years
At two years post-op breast augmentation surgery, it is unlikely that your results will change further. Consult with a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss revisionary surgery if you are wishing to change the look. Remember that revisionary surgery is tricky and no result is perfect.

Hi goodfornothing,
At 2 years, it's unlikely they will move much on their own.
Of course, it's very difficult to say anything specifically without being able to see you in person, and you should, of course, talk to a board-certified PS about all of this. Based on your photos, though, I would say that (1) the implants are a little high (probably because you had a bit of sagging beforehand - nothing personal, of course - and either didn't want to do anything about it...

Breast implant position will not change afte two years
Your breast implants have settled into this position and will not change any further since your surgery was done two years ago.

A board certified plastic surgeon can evaluate you in person and give you more specific answers to your questions.
Best wishes,
Dr.Bruno
