I had a Benelli lift and 550cc smooth, round saline under the muscle just over 3 weeks ago. Everything I've read says that implants take MONTHS to drop. Granted mine were never super high, but they have dropped considerably and I like them where they're at. I don't really want them to drop much further. Should I be worried they've dropped too fast? I do intend to ask my surgeon but I don't see him again for another 2 weeks.
Answer: Breast Augmentation with Lift Result Congratulations on your procedure! From what I can see, you appear to be healing very well. Although everyone is different, it typically takes anywhere from a few weeks to a few months for the breasts to fully settle. Your breasts may drop a little more but I would not anticipate that they will drop too much further than they already have. I recommend discussing this with your surgeon as well, as he or she is best equipped to answer questions regarding your particular case. Best of luck!

Answer: When my patients achieve the look of their upper poles they want they are all asked to start supporting their mounds and implants to minimize the potential for further settling that can occur with time. Simply letting gravity work on your implants could lead to further settling so contact your surgeon if he/she has any strategies to help keep your implants where they are and do not wait for the 2 weeks to see your surgeon. This has to be addressed now.

Answer: Implant dropping Thank you for your question. A lot of how quickly implants drop depend on your musculature, if you have had children before, and the surgery performed. Chances are your implants will not really drop too much further - but this also depends on the type of implant used. Try not to stress about it - and just ask your surgeon when you see him. But you look great so far. Looks like things are healing nicely. Best of luck!
