My boobs still seem like they are sitting more full in the upper pole rather than the lower pole.Particularly right hand side my nipple is facing down. I had low nipples to begin with however I was told the vectra images side on would basically be what I end up with. At the 5 month mark now,been wearing strap for 1 month, told to wear for another 2 .Is it likely my boobs will fill out in the lower pole & decrease in fullness in the upper pole resulting in better nipple position?
Answer: Implants high after 5 months This is a great question. Breast implants can continue to settle for at least 6 months, and sometimes they settle for up to 9-12 months. If I were you, I would give them some more time to settle and continue to see your plastic surgeon. If necessary, a relatively minor procedure (capsulotomy) can be performed to help them settle and make them move even, and this is a much simpler procedure than a breast augmentation with much quicker recovery for you.It's very important for you to keep your appointments with your plastic surgeon and discuss your concerns with him/her.I hope this helps and wish you all the best!Dr Knoetgen

Answer: Will my implants fill out/drop more into my lower pole? Thank you for your question photos. At 5 months it is unlikely that your implants will drop further. I agree that a breast lift may be necessary to center the nipple areola over the implants. Please see your plastic surgeon.

Answer: Implant Postion It is possible that the implants will continue to drop with the aid of a strap. However if they do not over the course of the next two months, I would consider possible breast lift to get the breast tissue centered over the implant. The Vectra system is a simulation and not a guarantee of an outcome, nevertheless improvement may still be seen six months postop.

Answer: Filling out lower pole Thank you for your pictures. At five months your breast augmentation is pretty stable. It is unlikely that the implants will drop and fill out the lower pole. This is why I am an advocate for placing the implants exactly where you want them at the time of surgery.
