Implants Sitting Extremely High 3 Months Post Op? (photo)

Yes, the implants are indeed a little too high right now.  But all is not lost: try a bandeau - type compression strap across the top of the breasts, to put a little downward pressure on them, and hopefully they will settle downwards.  Wear the bandeau as much as reasonably possible.

All the best,

Hello! Thank you for your question! You are still early post-procedure. Your appearance looks typical at this stage and will continue to improve as the swelling subsides and the implants continue to settle into their desired position. This usually proceeds over the next several weeks as the lower pole skin/breast stretches to accommodate the implants. Follow-up closely with your surgeon for additional restrictions/instructions and the potential use of bras/garments or massage that may encourage the implant to settle appropriately. Hope that this helps! Best wishes!

What did you do for the first 8 weeks?  That is when I take advantage of the healing process and involve my patients in helping determine where the implant will settle to.  But it certainly is worth it to keep trying as you are.  What you need to look at is your upper poles.  Are they in a desirable position for you?  If so, you simply need a revision of your lift.  If not, keep working at getting the implants to settle (as they often do an the most unusual of times) and if that fails, accept the possibility of needing a revision to lower them.  So its important to know your doctor's revision policy before you have surgery.  Best wishes!
