Do high profile implants take longer to drop? I am still high from the top i am only 3 weeks out so I think i am panicking a little to soon? What do you think?

Answer: When will the implant drop after breast augmentation: high riding versus high profile? The shape of the implant has less to do with the dropping and settling of the implant. Whether an implant drops is more likely related to: 1) surface texture (smooth or fuzzy) 2) nipple to crease skin length 3) submuscular versus subglandular placement 4) surgical release of the pocket and parenchyma 5) prior history of nursing or weight gain/loss with subsequent glandular involution 6) skin elasticity, etc.

Answer: How long does it take breast implants to drop You are still very early in the recovery process. You should continue to see your plastic surgeon and your ultimate result may take a few months. Ultimately there is no difference as far as the time for healing to occur between the different profile breast implants. There are so many considerations for each and every breast augmentation patient including the preoperative breast size, type and size of breast implant, and the placement of the implant above or under the muscle.
