I got 275ccs because I wanted a natural, conservative look. These feel huge and I am so disheartened. Do they look this big because of swelling? Will it go down? The first picture is me two weeks post op. The second is my pre op.
Answer: Post-Op BBA Thank you for your question and congratulations on your recent procedure! You're still very early in the healing process and are still having some swelling. Give your body some time to heal, about 3-4 months. They will begin to look better and better each day. Good luck and congratulations again!

Answer: Breast implants seem too large Hello and thanks for your post and photos. You are most definitely still quite swollen and your implants are sitting up high on your chest. As your swelling resolves and the implants settle over the next 2-3 months, you should begin to be much happier with your breast shape and size. If you continue to have concerns, the best person to address them with would be your surgeon.Best wishes during your recovery!Daniel Brown, MD, FACSBoard Certified, American Board of Plastic SurgeryMember, American Society of Aesthetic Plastic SurgeonsMember American Society of Plastic SurgeonsCastle Connolly Top DocReal Self Top 500

Answer: Breast size after augmentation I would not expect your breast size to change much at this point, but you will have a dramatic change in shape. This may produce more natural breast you are looking for.

Answer: 2 weeks post op, will my boobs get smaller? Thank you for your question. Congratulations on your surgery. You're two weeks out from surgery, so your breasts will continue to change noticeably over the next month and then again over the following five months. I don't think that they will get smaller, and in fact I think that they will get a little bigger. However, as they get larger the shape will change for the better. Implants tend to move too high after surgery and this gives an unnaturally full appearance of the top of the breasts. After surgery it's normal to feel uncomfortable with the way your breasts look. As your implants settle you lose the exaggerated fullness at the top and get more naturally appearing fullness at the bottom. Be patient with the healing process and as your implants settle I think you'll start loving your new look. Congratulations again and if you have specific questions make sure to reach out to your surgeon. Your surgeon should be happy to answer questions as they arise.
