I don’t think my breast implants are sitting too high at day 3 post op. I breastfeed 3 kids for a total of 4 years so needless to say my breasts were a bit droopy. Part of my reason for implants was to fill the upper pole. So I am wondering why I need to wear this uncomfortable strap to push them down? Won’t they naturally drop and be lower because of my skin being stretched? If anything I may have needed a lift. I know some docs use them and others don’t. Wanting other opinions. Thanks!!
