My results are beautiful so far as I’m just a few days shy of 2 weeks post OP. I noticed the other day a divot on my left breast between the bottom of my natural breast tissue and the bottom of the implant. It’s barely noticeable, but I’m worried it’s bottoming out. Do you think they’re bottoming out or dropping normally? I called the surgeon’s office Friday afternoon but they were already closed. I will try to see him Monday.
Answer: Are My #Breastimplants Bottoming Out? From your photos, it does not appear that your #breastimplants have bottomed out. Frankly, at this point, with being shy of two weeks post #breastaugmentation #surgery, you're too early in your healing to determine if bottoming out is occurring. I also want to reassure you that you are nowhere near your final result. I would continue to follow the post-op instructions of your #plasticsurgeon and make certain to attend all of your follow up appointments. Healing from #cosmeticsurgery is a process, your plastic surgeon's care team is likely highly trained and capable of walking you through every step to put your mind at ease while healing.

Answer: Post op healing You look great for 2 weeks. It does not appear that you are bottoming out. It's much too early to assess for this. Discuss your concerns with your surgeon and make sure to follow the post operative instructions. Congratulations.

Answer: Bottoming Out Congratulations on your procedure! From your photos, the implants do not appear to have "bottomed out." At two weeks post-operative, it is too early to tell your final results. I expect your surgeon will teach you some gentle massages and exercises to aid your implants with "dropping and fluffing," so that they take on a more natural and symmetrical appearance. They look great! Best Wishes.
