Answer: Implant settling depends on many variables and if you have textured implants, I wouldn't anticipate settling to occur and you will need a revision if you want lower positioned implants. If you have smooth implants, keep up the band use and massage. Your goal should be to get your upper poles to look like how you want them to. If you want completely natural, you have a ways to go and if it doesn't change with time, your surgeon should be motivated to revise this for you to help you get the best result possible.

Answer: Implants still riding high at 2 months... Hello and thank you for your question. It is hard to give you a accurate advice without knowing what style/size/profile implants you had placed, your measurements, and whether or not they are above or under muscle. Regardless, don't lose hope as there are people with a tighter skin/muscle envelope who need 3-6 months to fully drop and fluff. Therefore, continue following your plastic surgeon's advice and hopefully you will start to turn the corner in about a month. If after 3 months you don't see any improvement, you could consider breast revision surgery at that point. If you pursue a second opinion at that point, make sure to seek the expertise of a board certified plastic surgeon with expertise in revision breast surgery. I hope this helps and best of luck to you. Sincerely,Dr. Sean Kelishadi
