My BA was 8/5/13. I got silicone under the muscle, under the breast incisions with dissolvable stitches. At week 2, my PS removed the original white steri-strips and placed a beige tape over the incisions. I am at about week 3 now and have developed a rash, first where the tapes were and now it is spreading. My PS told me I am having an allergic reaction with hyperpigmentation. The reddened areas of my skin are extremely sensitive to touch and movement and feel very tight.

It is not unusual for the implants to ride high after a submuscular breast augmentation. The good news is time, weight and gravity are on you side. As long as the pocket was dissected properly the implants will drop. Massage will help to push the implant down. If you are...
Typically I recommend to patients an increase or decrease of at least 100-150 cc depending on the pt's size. You are very petite and should see a definite difference with a volume change starting at 75-100cc's. Good luck and choose your surgeon wisely.
