My implants feel like they are going in my armpits! I am 1 week post op. What can I do to push them in? (Photo)

One week after surgery the breasts are quite swollen and the implants have not settled. Typically the breasts feel much more swollen than they actually are and may feel as if they are in the armpits. These sensations should usually subside over time. I always recommend following your surgeons instructions for postoperative care. Discuss your concerns with them and ask for any recommendations they may have.

Dear tashby82,
I understand your concern and it is quite normal to be concerned about the outcome following a breast augmentation surgery. However, you are still in the very early stages of the healing process at 5 days  post op.Your will need to be patient at this moment and follow what your surgeon has instructed you to do post operatively.At the early stage of the healing process, the tissues around the implants are still swollen. Once the swelling subsides and the implants drop to their final position, you will be able to see the final result of your breast augmentation surgery.

In your picture, your implants appear to be properly positioned. Some of what you're feeling is probably swelling that will go down with time. Continue to follow up with your surgeon and follow his or her postoperative instructions. Your surgeon is your best resource for information at this critical time in your recovery.
