3 days post up square shape and low nipple. 400 cc mentor gel implants. Is this normal?

Thank you for your question. Your breast implants appear to be rather high, which is completely normal at only 3 days post-op. You are still very early in your healing process. It can take several weeks for the implants to settle and each implant often settles at different rates. The appearance of your breasts will change gradually in the next few months. Once your implants begin to settle, your breasts will round out. If you are having serious concerns about your recovery process. I recommend reaching out to your surgeon as he or she is best equipped to answer questions regarding your particular case. Best of luck with your recovery!

Thanks for your question. It takes several months for the swelling to settle after a breast augmentation. Over this period, they drop and settle into place. I would wait until 3 months have passed before assessing the final outcome. I would suggest making an appointment with your surgeon at that stage for a review.

Eryn. I appreciate your concern, however your early results appear completely appropriate and your implants need to settle in and your body adapt to the implants. The overlying skin and muscle needs to relax and allow this process to happen over time. Try to stay patient and positive and follow up with your plastic surgeon. Good luck.

Hi.  Your implants look to be in good position and you have a nice initial result.  The breast will tend to gradually soften as you get farther out from surgery and then look more natural.  Your surgeon should be able to help guide you through this process.  Good luck and take care,Dr. Howell

Thank you for your question. This is all normal at 3 days post op. It can take 3-6 months before the implants have fully dropped. If the implant is smooth, you will need to massage them 3-5 times a day to help the implants settle into their natural position. If after this amount of time, speak with your board certified plastic surgeon about your concern. Best of luck in your recovery.
