I'm 3 days Post-Op now and very depressed about the size. I expected much more fullness with 450cc round, high profile textured, Natrelle Implants. They seem so small and flat. Especially since I'm small with 5ft 5 and 110 lbs. I saw many other pictures with women who have a way larger result with even smaller implants. Do you think it will change when they drop? will they drop? I don't see that the implant is high now. Can I expect a change and will they appear fuller like my wish-picture?
Answer: Size Over the next few months your breasts will change as the swelling subsides, the tissues stretch and the implants settle. Remember, this is the size that you and your surgeon selected. Please follow all your post operative instructions, and discuss all your concerns with your surgeon.

Answer: Size disappointment after breast augmentation Thank you for your question and for sharing your photos. Based on your initial reaction, if you're already regretting not going larger, chances are you will continue to have this concern once everything settles. At three days, your breasts will be swollen and the implants may continue to descend. I would visit with your plastic surgeon to discuss your concerns.

Answer: 3 days Breast augmentation post op, some advices: Thank you very much for this enquire.Certainly 3 days after a breast augmentation is not enough time to give value judgements about 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 Cotes.-

Answer: 3 days post augmentation Hello angel_5,It's very common to have anxiety after having breast augmentation surgery about your size and shape. At three days after surgery, it is much too early to determine what your final size and shape will be. It is difficult but be patient and over the next few months your swelling will decrease, the muscle will relax (the tight muscle makes the implant look flatter initially) and the shape and position of your implants will evolve. Make sure to voice your concerns to your plastic surgeon so that he/she can advise and reassure you.Best of Luck!Dr. Rednam

Answer: 3 days Hello, 3 days is too early to judge your breast. With time, your tissues will relax, surgical swelling will subside and your breast will soften and have a different look than they do now. Until then, you really cant make any final statements about size and appearance.
