Is It Normal for a Implant to Be Moving to the Arm Pit?

Thank you for the question.

It would be in your best interest to discuss your concerns with your plastic surgeon in person. It may be that  the use of a supportive bra and or supportive dressings may be helpful at this point. In the longer term, if the breast implant continues to displace laterally (and significantly), revisionary breast surgery may be necessary.

 Best wishes.

After breast augmentation it is normal to have a gradual recovery. Typically the implants are placed beneath the muscle so the implants can be high as the muscle pushes them upwards. As the muscle stretches the implants drop or settle. Breast implants in the armpit  are not normal. It is probably ok and I recommend waiting. Most of the time settling will make a big difference.

 

 

The implant should not be trending toward your armpit. It sounds like the pocket may be too big. At two weeks sometimes you can prevent this from worsening, however it is best to see your surgeon. good luck.
