Answer: How long after surgery does the gummy bear implant finally settle in? Thank you for your excellent question. Sientra high strength cohesive gel implants, so called "gummy bear" implants, come in both round and textured surfaces for breast augmentation and reconstruction. Smooth implants will typically settle around 4 weeks after surgery, though final results may take several months. Textured implants are designed to stay where they are placed, as a result, they do not settle. Hope this helps

Answer: Gummy bear implants do not settle Usually when patients ask about implants settling in they are referring to smooth round implants that can settle a bit. Textured shaped implants (gummy bear, form-stable) do not settle but are intended to stay where they are placed. They are often a good option for reconstruction post mastectomy.

Answer: Drop or not The answer to your question depends on he shell type. Smooth implants can take three months to settle. The textured implant is designed to stay pretty much where they are placed. Good luck and be well.

Answer: When referring to "gummy bear" do you mean the textured shaped implant or the smooth round implant. If the former, there is minimal settling with that device. If the latter, you can settling even months after your procedure.
