Have my Implants Dropped Yet? (photo)

At 3.5 months post-op, your look appears perfect, because over the next 3-6 months you will almost certainly drop a tiny bit more. You look great now, and your surgeon is to be congratulated on a splendid result. You are to be congratulated on a splendid choice and result thus far!

Scar tissue reaches maturity (maximum softening and fading and stretching) at 7 months post-op, but this is a bell-shaped distribution that means some patients might have "complete" healing and scar maturation in 3-4 months, and other may take 10-12 months or more.

Your breasts look fabulous in every position, and if you are not happy now (you should be), they will only improve a bit more as the months go by. Avoid sun exposure on your periareolar scars (including tanning bed) to prevent them turning brown, and wear a supportive bra to prevent excessive drop. You will look even better in a few months, but look great right now. Relax and sing your surgeon's praises!

Congratulations.  You have chosen an excellent plastic surgeon for your procedure.  It appears you had a circumareolar or Benelli mastopexy with the lift scar only around the areola.  Your implants appear well positioned.  You have fullness in the upper quadrant and no part of your breast is hanging on the chest wall.  Your nipples are symmetrical.  All in all, I would say you have an excellent result.  Discomfort in a very mild form may go on for several months.  The process of placing an implant under your breast and/or muscle stretches out nerves, and they may fire randomly for a long time.  This means nothing.  It will decrease in intensity and eventually go away.  Finally, as to your question about dropping, your surgeon can answer this best; however, they certainly look as if they are in the right place from your pictures.       

Please thank your surgeon for doing a fantastic job.  We plastic surgeons train very long, work very hard, and invest more heavily than ANY other specialty to provide the best possible care for every patient.  Still, despite doing everything "right," there are still factors beyond our control, and sometimes things don't proceed as planned.  In your case, all is well.  You will have occasional discomfort, settling and softening of the breasts will continue for months (and years), but results don't get better than yours.

Your results look very nice, and it appears that they have come down into the pocket nicely. An exam is always helpful to be sure.

The series of posted photo leads me to respond with yes they have dropped. But if you are not sure visit your surgeon to discuss.
