I am almost 4 months post op, I had a lollipop lift with 450cc silicone implants. I have noticed that my right breast is flat on the bottom and hasn't totally dropped. Will the flatness go away? Or is it something that will need to be remedied?

Answer: "Flat" breast bottom 4 months after breast lift plus implants. "Final" healing and scar maturation takes 6-12 months, so I can safely advise you to continue to be patient for now. Things will likely change as time goes by, but it would be incorrect to "promise" a perfect outcome. Only time will tell, but do be patient in the meantime. I would not be considering a revision for 6-12 months, which your surgeon should be counseling you as well.You may want to ask your surgeon about an elastic bandeau worn above the "higher" breast, and below the "lower." This can help even out the implant position over time. Waiting is another less proactive option! Best wishes! Dr. Tholen

Answer: Flat on the bottom of my breast. Will the flatness go away? Hello dear, thanks for your question and provided information as well.. The breasts may lose their elasticity and firmness which can be caused by different factors such as pregnancy, massive weight loss, lactation and aging. To reaffirm the breasts and restore the natural look your surgeon can perform a mastopexy or breast lift. A breast lift restores a firmer, perkier, and more aesthetically pleasing shape to sagging breasts. This not only can improve a patient’s appearance by restoring her youthful, feminine proportions, but also help bras and swimsuits fit more comfortably and attractively. By removing excess, stretched out skin, reshaping the breast tissue, and raising the nipple & areola into a more forward position, a cosmetic surgeon can create a more youthful breast contour. Stretched, large areolae can also be reduced during breast lift surgery, creating an overall better proportioned, natural looking breast…
