Implants Still Feel Like 2 Foreign Objects in my Body. How Long Does It Take for Them to Feel Normal/attached to the Body?

Thank you for the question.

As you can imagine, every patient's experience after breast augmentation surgery is different. Some patients feel like the breast implants are “part of them” 2 months out of surgery;  on the other hand, some patients never fully “adapt” to the presence of  these foreign bodies.

 In my experience, I would say that the average time for patients to feel that the breast implants are "part of them” is about 3 months after surgery.

 Your plastic surgeon will be in the best position to advise you;  I would suggest continued follow-up to express your concerns/questions.

Best wishes.

The healing process for every patient is different.  Not everyone's experience will be the same.  In general, most patients will feel like their implants have reached a "normal" state by 2-3 months after surgery.  Be sure to speak with your surgeon if you are further out than this and are still having issues.

All patients have different rates of healing. The most important criteria for a natural feel for implants is the size of the implants relative to your native breast tissue. When most of your breast is implant they will probably feel less natural. Healing after implant surgery takes 6-9 months even up to a year.
