How long after a revision will it take my implant to drop?

Question

I had my second breast augmentation about 6 months ago to go from 400 to 600cc hp silicone under muscle breast implants. My left side did not drop ( 6 months later) so I had a revision to open the pocket. My question is how long does it take to drop in place?

Thank you for your question. It commonly takes between 3 - 6 months for the implants to settle. Also, i suggest having close follow up with your plastic surgeon to discuss specific concerns. Good luck with your recovery.

Thank you for your question. By 3-6 months after surgery your implants should be settled appropriately. Be sure to bring up any concerns with your plastic surgeon at your next postoperative visit. Best of luck, Dr. Kludt
