I had breast augmentation done 3 months ago, 330cc under the muscle silicone moderate profile. Although they have dropped a little they are still more full in the upper pole and I am starting to worry as they dont seem to have fully dropped. I have read about the pocket not being created correctly and I hope this hasnt happened to me. I am due to see my surgeon again in 2 weeks, I would value some other opinions so I know what I am talking about when I see him. I worry I may need a revision?
Answer: Implants dropping From the pictures you posted, it would appear that you have a little more dropping to do. From the pictures you posted, it would appear that you have a little more dropping to do. Fortunately, three months is still fairly early. Although some people drop into position right away, this is not always the case. I tell patients that we cannot judge the final results until at least six months after the surgery. There is a common perception that we simply insert the implants and we see immediate results. In most cases, there is a lot of work to be surgery to get the optimal results. That is why it is essential that you keep your follow-up visits with your plastic surgeon. What is encouraging is that you're developing a very nice shape and you should be headed towards a decent result

Answer: Breast Implants Not Dropping 3 Months Post Op? It's still early in your healing process. #Healing will continue for 2-3 months following your #Augmentation #Mastopexy procedure. There may be some swelling, bruising, malposition, color differences. Sensation will be abnormal. Scars will also be changing.But, it can be up to one year see your final result. Your doctor may require you to move or massage the implants within the breast pockets during the #postoperative period. #Textured implants do not require breast massage. You will be informed about this at your post-operative visit. Also, the two breasts commonly heal quite differently so #assymetry is not unusual. One breast may swell more, feel more uncomfortable, or have a different initial shape. After complete #healing, they will be more similar and natural. You must have patience, but if this causes concern, ask questions of the doctor or the nursing staff.

Answer: Wait When implants are first inserted, they sit high up because your tissues are tight and gravity hasn't taken effect. Over time, natural tissue expansion occurs to allow the implants to fall into place. By this time, your breasts will have taken on a more natural contour, where the lower breasts become softer and rounder. Please wait at least four months for this to happen.This process tends to occur sooner in one breast than the other, so don't be alarmed if you find that your left drops before the right or vice versa.

Answer: Breast implants dropping at 3 months. Thank you for the photos. In general it may take 6 months to a year or so to have the implants finally fall into place. Good that you are seeing your board certified plastic surgeon and let him/her know what is going on. Every surgeon may have their own protocol for message, etc;.
