Optimum timing of deflation and re-implanting to achieve max skin shrinkage? (Photos)

Good afternoon,
I've tried many different lengths of time between the two events, and I find that about 90% of the shrinkage occurs in the first three months- waiting beyond this timing doesn't do a lot of extra good.

This is a great question. It was studied by a plastic surgeon in Alabama, Dr. Grotting. The link to the article is below. In brief, the surgeons demonstrated that 4 weeks between deflation and revision breast surgery allowed enough time for the breast envelope to contract and some volume of the natural breast to be restored. This is helpful information for surgeons performing revisionary breast surgery and is an evidence-based way to help guide this decision of timing. Hope that helps!
Best,Dr. Perez

If you wait for three months after having your implants deflated the majority of any retraction will be completed. At that time you can meet with your surgeon to discuss implant sizing and lifting procedures. Be sure to see a board certified plastic surgeon for your consultation.
