Answer: 1 month post op, some advices: Thanks for the question. In my practice, after performing a BA I recommend to my patients to limit the movement of the arms for two weeks. After that, you can move your arms taking care and always with common sense. In this regard, it's not advisable to carry heavy weights to prevent the implant out of position, and allow the formation of the physiological capsule around the implant, also to avoid pain and breast swelling. Kind regards

Answer: Things can settle some more over the next couple of months. Your nipple position does appear a little low, however, doing a lift+aug better to be a little low than too high, which is a problem you and the surgeon cannot easily recover from. IF after all the dust settles in 5-6 months and your nipples are in a better position, your surgeon can easily do a small revision to lift the nipples a little higher, but if they were too high=bad problem. Be patient.
