I have 375cc mod + and I'm only 4 days post op, but already I'm extremely unhappy with my results. All I see when I look in the mirror are breasts that resemble cones. Are my nipples sitting too low? Why are my breasts so pointy? Will this correct itself and will they become more round as they heal? Also it doesn't really appear that I have any curvature/sideboob or lower pole fullness. My breasts just appear to project straight off my chest, like torpedoes. Please help, I'm not happy with my results. :(

Answer: Breast Augmentaion Thank you for your question. Keep in mind that you are only 4 days post op and swelling usually lasts 6 weeks to 3 months. Typically the final result of Breast Augmentation surgery may take 6 months to 1 year. Your post op pictures look good.Best,Dr. Rodgers

Answer: Pointy breasts Based on your picture, I am assuming that you had more than a breast augmentation. It looks like you had some kind of crescent or peri-areolar breast lift to elevate your nipple/areola on each side. Also, I am assuming that your breast implants were placed under your chest muscle. After breast implant surgery when the implants are below the chest muscle, the muscle will contract upwards, making you look fuller in the upper portion of your breasts. It takes awhile for the muscle to relax and allow the implants to settle. Since you are only four days post-op, you also have some swelling. I tell my patients that I don't really look for my final results after a breast lift or breast augmentation under the muscle for three months. It just takes that long for the muscle to stretch and relax, the tissues to settle, the swelling to go away, and for you to get used to the changes in your breasts. Although you said you are not happy with your results at the present time, my advice is to wait for three months to pass before you decide whether or not to do something further.
