Hi, I had my BA 2 weeks ago and had 275 cc anatomical implants because I am thin and this is my initial breast augmentation surgery. The consultation, hospital and post-op care were all good and I was comfortable with my surgeon. But my question is do my breasts look good and will the shape still improve or is this it? The skin is still a little shiny and the silicone textured cohesive implants are now softer.
Answer: BA 2 weeks post-op Anatomical Implants (photo) Thank you for your question and for sharing your photograph. It looks as if you have obtained a very nice result. Though anatomical implants do not "drop" to the same degree as round implants, you will see some continued changes to your breasts as swelling resolves and the overlying skin stretches to accommodate your increased volume. Hope this helps.

Answer: 2 weeks post-op from breast augmentation You appear to have a good result at only 2 weeks after your augmentation. Anatomical shaped implants are also textured implants and will not drop the same as smooth round implants, so do not expect too much change in position. Everything looks good at present.

Answer: 2 weeks post op, some advices: Thanks for the question. Its too early to talk about final results.In my practice, after performing a BA I recommend to my patients to limit the movement of the arms for two weeks. After that, you can move your arms taking care and always with common sense. In this regard, it's not advisable to carry heavy weights to prevent the implant out of position, and allow the formation of the physiological capsule around the implant, also to avoid pain and breast swelling.Respectfully,Dr. Emmanuel Mallol.-

Answer: Breast Augmentation - Time to Settle Breast implants always sit a little bit too high when they are first placed. With time, as the muscle relaxes and as gravity takes effect they will settle and your skin will adapt to accommodate them. The texture implants, and especially the anatomic ones, drop less than smooth implants. Most implants take approximately three months to fully settle - essentially what you have at three months is likely what your final result will look like.Your photos show that you are off to a very good start. The overall shape and symmetry look good and it is a nice size for your frame. You have some mild nipple asymmetry, in that you left nipple sits very slightly higher than your right. You probably had that preoperatively. I would imagine that these will settle nicely, not drop too much lower, the skin will relax a bit with time and become less shiny and you will be quite happy with this result.
