I was a 28A (5ft, 99lbs). I had 325cc silicone round submuscular implants.I am now a big B/small C but my breast looks odd. I feel very uncomfortable and bad in my skin. I had slightly tuberous breasts before with few tissue but I did not expect my boobs to be so far apart. The implants don’t move much around and i can feel them under my armpits after I lay down. What can I do to make it more natural looking? Did I go too big and should I consider downsizing or removing them at once?
Answer: Recommendation Hello. Thank you for your inquiry and congratulations on your surgery! It is important to have an in-person medical assessment regarding this issue as it is difficult to determine virtually. Continue to update your doctor in the matter and follow their post-op protocol. It is crucial to get cleared by your doctor before engaging in specific physical activity before the 3 month healing period has ended as the healing stage is important for healthy results. It generally takes around 6 months to a year to see your final results. Your tissues will take time to relax and allow your implants to "Drop and Fluff" settling into place. Should a revision cross your mind, it is best to wait at least 6 months to a year before doing so. Our tips for recovery following breast augmentation are to wear a supportive sports bra for 3 months post-operative and refrain from lifting anything heavier than 10 lbs for 3 weeks as we don't want any strain at your incision sites.

Answer: Breasts are far apart 10th day after BA Hi, I think you need to cool down and not to get so much worried.This is the most common look at this stage. Lot of it is surgical (oedema swelling) and will get reduced in first 3 months slowly and tightness will turn into more comfortable skin. Over all look will improve. Any conclusion in your situation should be taken at 6 months post op. For implants too high into the arm fits I advise my patients suing compression strep in the upper half of the breast so that implant slip down little bit during healing. I wish you good luck
