How Long Does It Take for Implant to Drop After Replacement & Capsulectomy Surgery?

Dear Kmbyas75,Dropping of implants is part of the healing process and this occurs after the tissues surrounding the implants slowly relax, allowing the implants to settle into their final position. It can take about four to six months for the implant to drop down to their final position.Please do allow some time for the healing process to occur. If after six months, you are not satisfied with the appearance of your breast, you can visit your plastic surgeon and discuss your concerns.Daniel Barrett, MD

This is multifactorial and depends on many things. There is no one specific answer but more of a range. Typically, it can take 3 to 6 months for an implant to drop off after breast implant capsulectomy. Please consult with your board-certified plastic surgeon regarding their specific instructions and exercises. Some surgeons recommend early massage. Some plastic surgeons also recommend a bandeau or a similar garments that is worn on the upper portion of the breast.  This is done to force the implant into position. Good luck. Sincerely, Dr. Katzen

It would really depend on what type of revision you are talking about.  In general with a revision the breasts will look better right away.  There may be some swelling ini ally until things settle but the implant "dropping" does not happen quite the same way as after an iniallt fresh breast augmentation

It usually takes aboiut 4 months or so for the implants to be soft and sit normally in the pocket, especially if they are under the muscle.

Without seeing before and after photos it is difficult to  say. However, depending on much scar tissue was removed and how far you out from surgery, you still may have quite a bit of swelling. Your PS should give you a good idea upon your next visit.
