Massaging to Improve Shape of Implant After Exchange Surgery?

pam35601
I had expander/implant exchange one month ago. The shape of the implants worries me because they look unnatural and square instead of rounded. Will massaging daily help to improve the shape over time ? I am using bio oil for scarring and have been massaging both breasts twice a day. This also helps alleviate the tightness and hardness I've been experiencing since the exchange surgery. I've read it takes months for the implants to drop and fluff (?) Is this correct ? Thank You for your time.
