I am 3 days post op 400cc submuscular silicone l. And the healing is going well. However I feel some movement in my left breast and I am concerned if it's normal or it it will go away with time. I do gently massage the top of the implant as they are obviously very high and not ready to drop yet. However I do not want to worry about it

Answer: Is it ok to feel my implant/muscle moving?
Hi, do not worry too much.
You can wait until your next appointment if it is in just 3 weeks. It may also come out before your next review. You are allowed to shower and apply the cream, just do not think about the stitch, but do remind your doctor/nurse to take it out next time you visit...
It is very common to have water retention after any type of surgery. You are only 8 days out. This swelling may last for weeks. Please tell your plastic surgeon your concerns.
If you are planning to have the surgery just for your boyfriend, I strongly suggest you do not. Plastic surgery is a choice that should only be made for yourself, and not to please someone else. It's your body and you should be the one who makes any decisions about it.
