Are my breast dropping the way that they need to I'm 2 months
Answer: Implant Drop We generally tell our patients that it will take a minimum of three months for the implants to "drop" and become more a part of you. It may still be a little early in the healing process but be sure to keep follow up with your surgeon as you continue to heel. Good luck!

Answer: Will my implants still drop and fluff? I'm 2 months. Am I on the right track? Thank you for your question and photographs, and it appears that you will have a very nice result. After placement of implants, the overall appearance of the breasts will change dramatically over the next several months, as the implants drop, and the overlying tissue stretches to accommodate the extra volume. It appears that you had fairly large implants placed, which can result in increased swelling and muscle tightness, maintaining your implants elevated. I know waiting is difficult, but judge your results at 4-6 months after surgery as most of your breast changes should have occurred by then. Hope this helps.

Answer: Will my implants still drop and fluff? I'm 2 months. Am I on the right track? I appreciate your question. Right now, you are very early on in the post op recovery period. It will take 3-6 months for you to feel comfortable having implants in your body and for them to settle. This time allows for you to physically and psychologically adapt to your new body image. There are many variables that contribute to a breast augmentation's final result. Preop size and shape, IMF location, location of the implants and type of implant. Patients heal at different rates and each breast will sometimes heal at a different rate. Rest, relax, recover and heal. Please Express your concerns to your surgeon so he/she can examine you. Then reassess final result at 6 months. The best way to assess and give true advice would be an in-person exam. Please see a board-certified plastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic and restorative breast surgery. Best of luck! Dr. Schwartz

Answer: Will my implants still drop and fluff? I'm 2 months. Am I on the right track? Thank you for your question. While 2 months out is early, your should discuss it with your Plastic Surgeon. For my patients at this stage, I would make sure they are doing massage as instructed. I would also recommend using a Bandeau strap to put pressure on the upper poles to help with the swelling and put downward pressure on the implants.
