If you have rippling after breast implant surgery, how soon would you notice it?

Rippling can occur at any time, but especially if you have minimal breast tissue or loose weight. Not all women get rippling.

Dear jellycar27,
I understand your concern and it is quite normal to be concerned about the outcome following a breast augmentation surgery. However, you are still in the very early stages of the healing process at 1 days post op.Your will need to be patient at this moment and follow what your surgeon has instructed you to do post operatively.At the early stage of the healing process, the tissues around the implants are still swollen. Once the swelling subsides and the implants drop to their final position, you will be able to see the final result of your breast augmentation surgery.

Thank you for sharing your question. After six months you would be able to identify visible rippling though the skin, but the risks increase with time as the tissues thin due to genetics and environmental factors.
