I'm 8 weeks post op ba, I had a slightly larger implant in my right breast to even out assymetry, my left breast is softening up great but my right is still so firm, and feels tight, do I need to just give it time? My surgeon & nurse don't seem worried

Answer: Breast Augmentation - Post Op Swelling? Thank you for your question. You are still early in the post-operative period. It typically takes 3 - 6 months for the swelling to subside and and implants to settle into proper position. Please discuss your concerns with your board certified plastic surgeon. Also, make sure you follow all of your plastic surgeons post-operative instructions regarding level of physical activity and use of a support bra. Hope this helps and good luck with your recovery.

Answer: 8 weeks post op From the image is looks fine and if the implant is larger it wont move around in the pocket as well as the other side because there is not as much room to move. Good luck
