Okay so I actually got saline implants under the muscle . I was a 32A. What cup size do you think I'll be when they drop? I'm nervous they will be too small
Answer: Breast augmentation 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,Dr. Emmanuel Mallol.-

Answer: Saline breast implants 310 under the muscle. Thank you for sharing your question and photograph. Unfortunately it is difficult to say what cup size you ultimately will be based solely on your implant size. Your breasts will undergo significant changes as swelling resolves and volume redistributes into the lower border of each breast. This will affect how your breasts will fit into various bras and what cup size you will be. The best thing to do is to allow your results to mature over the next six months and then fit a supportive bra to your new breasts and implants. Hope this helps.

Answer: Too small after breast augmentation... I'm sorry to hear about the concerns you are experiencing after breast surgery. You should be aware that a significant percentage of patients at the early stages of recovery will feel that they are too big or (more commonly) too small. I routinely ask my patients to wait at least 3-6 months before evaluating the end results of the breast augmentation surgery. This waiting time allows patients to (usually) physically and psychologically adapt to the new body image. In other words, it is too early to evaluate the outcome of the procedure performed; your breasts will undoubtedly change over the course of the next several weeks/months. For example, many of my patients report that as the swelling around the breast implants (for example, in the sternal area) decreases, they feel that their breasts appear more projecting. Also, in my opinion, the "drop and fluff” phenomenon does hold some validity; as breast implants “settle”, many patients feel that their breasts actually look larger. Although online consultants cannot predict whether or not you will be pleased with the long-term outlook, of the procedure performed, it is safe to predict that the breasts will change. Do your best to stay emotionally even keeled. Best wishes.

Answer: New size Your bra/cup size will be whatever it is for that make of bra that day. Many factors affect that. It is how they "look" to you that is the goal, not what the tag on the bra says. Your breasts will change a LOT over the upcoming months gaining projection and filling out the lower poles. Be patient and reevaluate them in 6-8 months.

Answer: Cup size difficult to predict From the looks of your photo it looks like you're surgery was fairly recent. Saline implants will change shape as the pocket stretches over the next few weeks and months. It's hard to say at this point what the ultimate size will be but if you and your surgeon planned this carefully pre-op then I suspect you'll be satisfied.
