Post op 3 mos. Anchor lift with 300cc hp round smooth submuscular. 36dd pre and post op. Why are my breasts looking more squared from side still, and implant continues to appear high? The lower pole tissue appears just draped and more empty. Can I expect lower pole fullness by month 6?
Answer: Postop Concerns Good afternoon!After a lift with implants the most common adverse event is further sagging of the natural tissue. That's what you've got going on here- your tissue was pulled up nice and tight, your nice implants were put in, and then your tissue started to stretch out again, and now has that look like it is "melting" off of your implants. You need your lift re-tightened!

Answer: Settlement of the implants Thank you for your questions and congratulations on your surgery. Your still in the very early stages of recovery and the settlement process. Settlement of implants can take 6-8 months to settle completely. I would suggest giving it a little bit more time and following up with your surgeon. If at the end of 8 months your still not happy you can discuss your options with your surgeon. Best of luck to you.

Answer: Implants High after Lift Overall you appear to be healing well. Time will tell if the implants drop enough to make you happy with your look. There are, in fact, 2 aspects to this question. It may be that the implants "haven't dropped enough" or it may be that the breast tissue has settled too low.It is best to wait until 6 months or more after surgery to make a final judgement on this. Sometimes the solution is to re-lift the breast tissue, rather than lower the implants. Best of Luck. Dr. Romanelli
