Sientra 350cc Implant, will it drop and fluff? I'm 10 days post op. (photos)

Thank you for your question.  You are still early in your post operative course. What you are seeing mostly is spasm and swelling in the upper part. They usually will get to their final position in 6 to 12 months. One will usually drop faster than the other, and the shape may go through various changes.  Please follow your Board Certified Plastic Surgeon's post op instructions. For example; we like message, but some surgeons will have you wait, or do it in a specific manner. Please let them know your thoughts and concerns.

Thank you for your question. You are still early in the post-operative period. It typically takes 3 - 6 months for the swelling to subside and and implants to settle into proper position. Please discuss your concerns with your board certified plastic surgeon. Also, make sure you follow all of your plastic surgeons post-operative instructions regarding level of physical activity and use of a support bra. Hope this helps and good luck with your recovery.

Dear soreadyforboobs,dropping of implants is part of the healing process and this occurs after the tissues surrounding the implants slowly relax, allowing the implants to settle into their final position. It can take about four to six months for the implant to drop down to their final position.I understand that you are worried about your implants are not dropping as expected. However, you are still in the early phase of the recovery period. Please do allow some time for the healing process to occur. If after six months, you are not satisfied with the appearance of your breast, you can visit your plastic surgeon and discuss your concerns.Daniel Barrett, MD, MHA, MS

At only 10 days postop from breast augmentation, you are still very early in your recovery.  You have a lot of swelling that will resolve over several weeks to months.  The implants are positioned high and will drop to a more natural position over the next 3 - 6 months.  I would recommend following up with your plastic surgeon with your concerns and questions.  He/she is the best person to answer these questions.  Good communication between patient and surgeon is very important both before and after surgery.

You are still very early in the recovery process and it is very normal for breasts to be high and tight this soon after surgery, especially since you had very small breasts to begin with. You look normal for this stage in the recovery.  Since you are only 10 days out from your procedure, there is still a fair amount of swelling involved.  This swelling can take up to 2-6 months to fully subside, which is why I suggest that my patients not go bra shopping or get sized until at least 6 weeks after their procedure because the size can decrease slightly with the healing process so I would not be concerned over them getting any bigger.  Also, keep in mind that cup size can vary from manufacturer to manufacturer.  In regards to your clothes not fitting any differently there are a lot of factors that affect this including what bras you used to wear or the tightness of your clothing so, there is no way to tell you why this is occurring.As far as the fluff that you were talking about, most implants "fluff" over time as your tissues expand to accommodate the implant.  This occurs within 2-3 months following surgery but everyone is different and some people can take up to a year before the implants settle into their permanent position especially with textured anatomical implants. After your implants adjust into their permanent position the size should not change much. The bottom should fill up more after they fluff as well. Check with your surgeon to determine their recommendations.
