Answer: Will my implants come closer together? Congratulations on having undergone the breast augmentation procedure. It is much too early to evaluate the outcome of the procedure performed; your breasts will undoubtedly change over the course of the next several weeks/months. Many of my patients report that as the swelling around the breast implants (for example, in the sternal area) decreases, they feel that their breasts appear more projecting; I do not think that they will appear significantly closer together however. Also, in my opinion, the "drop and fluff” phenomenon does hold some validity; as breast implants “settle”, many patients feel that their breasts actually look larger. Although online consultants cannot predict whether or not you will be pleased with the long-term outlook, of the procedure performed, it is safe to predict that the breasts will change. Do your best to stay emotionally even keeled. Best wishes for an outcome that you will be pleased with longer-term.

Answer: Will my implants come closer together? Hello and thanks for your question You are still very early in the post operative period and your implants have most likely not completely "dropped" into their final positions. It' hard to tell exact implant position from the photo you've included. Final appearance can take up to three months. In the mean time, I would review your concerns with your plastic surgeon. Use of massage exercises and elastic bands can be helpful. As far as post op pain, there is a huge variation in severity from patient to patient and what you have experienced is not unusual. Best of luck.
