How long does it take for breasts to settle after breast implant removal and lift? (photos)

February 19, 2015
Asked By:dnasmyth in Austin, TX

It's been 10 weeks since I had my implants removed with a breast lift. My nipples are pointing downwards and look like snouts. The left breast has an extra crease that is pronounced if I lift my arms. And the tissue hasn't dropped on my right breast.
