Answer: 3 weeks post op, some advices: Thanks for the question. 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. Kind regards

Answer: Uneven breast 3 weeks post op Thank you for you question. It is still too early in your post op period so I wouldn't worry about anything. It normally takes 6 months and in some a little longer for the tissue to adjust to the implants appropriately, for the swelling to subside and for the implants to drop in a more natural position. Please follow your surgeon's post operative instructions and keep your followup appointment for in person assessment. Best of luck.

Answer: Too Early to Tell Thank you for your question. It is normal in the early post-operative period for there to be some slight asymmetries, and for one implant to sit higher than the other. You are very early in the healing process and your implants are going to continue to settle over the next couple of months. While I can see what you are talking about, you already have a very nice result - that will just continue to improve. Follow your plastic surgeon's advice, and keep in close contact with him or her as you heal. Best of luck!
