Thank you for your question. Obviously, everybody is different in their healing.That being said,It typically takes 3 to 6 months for your final appearance to be reached.The healing rate will depend on your own tissue and its  ability to stretch and how long swelling takes to settle down.Best regards

Although many changes occur in the first six weeks after surgery, your final result is not seen until 3-6 months after surgery.  Variations in swelling will occur and each patient heals differently.  Always follow your surgeon's advice for the best results.

It will take about 4-6 months before your breasts settle after the capsulectomy and mastopexy.Until then I would follow your plastic surgeons after care regarding bras and scar treatment.Hope that helps.

Patience is definitely indicated; I ask my patients to  wait about six months before evaluating the outcome after breast implant removal surgery.   Several factors, such as skin elasticity and size of breast implant removed, come into play. Best wishes.

Steven Wallach, MD · Answer

It can take about 4-6 months for the breasts to soften up after a lift and explantation. Be patient with the results.
