I have a lift and implant Nov 14 and my boobs are huge. He said he did a “small d” and put 330cc narrow high profile silicone implant. He removed 90g of natural tissue. My breasts we stretched to the max and the skin came off my sternum. It has gone down a bit but I hate my cleavage and the look when I wear a bra. I also don’t like the side boob. My doctor charged me ALOT for this procedure and keeps saying “I look great”. Do I just need to wait and see if they drop?There is no gap between boobs

Answer: Symmastia Dear citygirl6982,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.I understand that you are worried about your implants are not dropping as expected and symmastia. However, you are still in the early phase of the recovery period. 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

Answer: If you want opinions about how 'great' you look post photos without your bra on and you will get lots of opinions that you can then take back to your surgeon if the majority here differ with your surgeon's assessment because just maybe, without your bra on, you do look great. With your bra on, your concerns are appreciated and if the skin between the mounds can be pushed down significantly, you do have a variation of symmastia as classic symmastia creates the dreaded unaboob. Either way, if you want more space between your mounds, you are looking at a revision with either more lateral movement of your implant, using a UHP implant, or downsizing if needed.
