Just got my boobs done, I was a B and I had 500 ccs put in. They look like cones instead of being round. Is that normal at first? And they are resting where my boobs normally sit. Shouldn't they be up higher at first?
Answer: Breast Augmentation - Post Op Swelling Thank you for your question and congratulations on your recent surgery. You are very early in the post-operative period and swelling is to be expected. It typically takes 3 - 6 months for the swelling to subside and the implants to settle into proper position. Swelling usually accounts for 10 - 15% of the initial post-operative appearance. The implants may swell asymmetrically, but usually settle evenly. Please discuss your concerns with your board certified plastic surgeon. Also, make sure you follow all of your plastic surgeons post-operative instructions regarding level of physical activity and use of a support bra. Hope this helps and good luck with your recovery.

Answer: Breasts look like cones after breast augmentation Without the benefit of photos or an exam, your description sounds normal for the immediate post-operative period. I will take several months for the implants to fully relax and obtain a more natural appearance. Best wishes.

Answer: Is it normal to for your boobs to look more cone like right after a breast aug? Its hard to say, without the benefits of photographs, to advise you. Generally speaking, breast to not look "normal" for several weeks after breast augmentation in many cases. I routinely ask my patients to wait at least 3-6 months before evaluating the end results of the breast augmentation surgery. This waiting time allows patients to (usually) physically and psychologically adapt to the new body image. It may take this period of time for the breast to soften and for the breast implants to settle ("drop and fluff").From the physiological standpoint, it takes many months (and even up to one year) to see the final results of surgery. factors such as swelling, tissue contraction, skin redraping, implant shifting etc. come into play.
