9 days post op, does this look normal? I just underwent breast augmentation 9 days ago. I was a barely an A cup and went with 350cc natrelle 410 cohesive teardrop shaped implants with the goal do look ‘natural’. I understand that there would be some swelling, and the the implants would appear to be high, but will these drop? Will I always have the weird round shape at the upper part of the breast? My breasts were not shaped at all like this prior. I’ve also had no children, if that helps. I’m hoping that I’ll love them eventually :(

Answer: Too soon to say but It’s a little early to say and the upper pole fullness you see you could just be swelling but… It always makes me nervous with the type of implant you have because they are textured and usually don’t move much after placement. So I always feel better if they look pretty good right after surgery because I have found with these implants they don’t settle as much as the smooth implants. So give it a good 4 to 6 more weeks for the swelling to go down but if they still look when I talk to your doctor about the massage. Again, you’re not supposed to massage these implants much but you might want to try if they are still high at that point.

Answer: Breast Aug Results Thank you for your question. It is not uncommon to have swelling. Breasts may not heal at the same rate, causing one breast to appear different than the other. It can take up to 12 weeks for the implants to settle and you to see the final result. Follow up with your board certified surgeon to address your concern. Good luck!
