I always heard that right after surgery the breasts are very swollen and look much bigger than they will be once swelling goes down. Even with swelling my breasts don't look as big as I wanted. I know it may take time for shape to be right. Should I be so concerned about the size? I am so worried that they will be too small. I would really appreciate any advice.
Answer: Breast size following augmentation Hi therethanks for your query.It is really difficult to judge things so early following your operation. You would have had discussions with your surgeon prior to surgery so I am sure these wishes were carried out. Please let things settle for at least a few months; in the meantime please do discuss your feelings with your surgeon.Good luck with your recovery

Answer: I am 2 days post op. My breasts do not look at all the size I wanted; they look too small. Should I be concerned? Two days after breast augmentation is typically too early to judge results. Wait at least 1 to 2 months to allow everything to settle, then discuss with your surgeon.

Answer: I am 2 days post op. My breasts do not look at all the size I wanted; they look too small. Should I be concerned? The concerns you express are not infrequently encountered by patients who have undergone breast augmentation surgery. Hopefully it will help you to know that many patients feel that they are “too large” or “too small” during the first few weeks after breast augmentation surgery. The majority of these patients go on to be very pleased with the longer-term outcome of the procedure performed. I would suggest that you give yourself 3 to 6 months to undergo the physical and psychological body image adjustment necessary. In other words, evaluate the outcome of the procedure several months from now; most likely, you will end up pleased with the procedure performed . In the meantime, continut to follow-up with your plastic surgeon who will be in the best position to address your questions/concerns. Best wishes.

Answer: Worried! Breasts look small 2 days post-op augmentation? It's much too early to worry about size or shape 2 days post-op. Your breasts will change over the next few months. Yes, as the swelling goes down, your breasts may be somewhat smaller but keep in mind that you are swollen all around your breasts so that's why it may seem that your breasts aren't projecting as much when you look down. Try to be patient and give it 3-6 months for everything to settle and re-evaluate then. If you are still unhappy with the size, that would be a good time to discuss your options with your surgeon.

Answer: Breast implant size If you think you are small right after surgery, then you will likely get a bit smaller after the swelling subsides.
