I am 3 weeks post op. Breast lift (lollipop) with small implant 255cc. I am wondering do I need to be wearing a chest band to help with the dropping of my breast. I hope within the 3-6 month range they actually drop and become round. I'm scared they will always be square-ish.

Answer: Boxy Breasts The short answer to your question is yes your breast will drop and no they will not always look square. It is routine for patients who have breast lifts with implant placement to have a boxy look initially. I counsel all my patients that they will have "buyer's remorse" after this particular operation for up to 3 months. When this particular surgery is preformed, if your breast look great early then the long term results will usually have the implant too low and too far to the outside. Also with implant placement it is routine to have muscle spasm which also makes the breast appear square. Based on your pictures, I am willing to bet that you are going to have an excellent result and be very happy!

Answer: Normal healing process At 3 weeks it is still early in the healing process after breast lift and augmentation. As the implants soften, settle and drop the breast shape will change along with cleavage. Give your body time to heal as it can take 3 months to see your results. Be sure to keep any scheduled follow up appointments you have for his or her evaluation and advice . Good luck!
