What Causes Frankenboobs Aka Spongebob Squareboobs? (photo)

I am 4 days post-op from a BA (425 and 475 HP silicone implants, dual plane, inframammary incisions) and have the dreaded squareboobs. My surgeon said I would have trouble with swelling because of well-developed pecs. Is that why this occurs? Is there anything I can do to improve my condition or hasten my progress? It's unsightly and painful! My pre-op stats: 33 years old 5'8" 140 lbs grade 1 ptosis no children
