Why do my implants seem smaller in clothes? (Photo)

June 6, 2015
Asked By:niknel in San Diego, California

I am 6 weeks post op from my breast lift with implants ( 375cc high profile unders). Very happy with my results. However why is it that I look so small in clothes? Its almost as if you can't tell that I had anything done (which for work I'm totally ok with). I am only wearing a sports bra so maybe that is it? Is this something I should just get used to? I have attached a few pics for comparison. Thanks.

Luis Macias, MD, FACS says:

Textured implants seem to take a little longer for them to drop, but they do drop over 3-6 months. People argue that they don't drop, but I have seen it with my patients as I use almost exclusively textured implants in my practice. I like these implants so much, given the research noting...
