Does massaging the breasts after surgery help the implants to drop into the pocket?

I know that after my breast augmentation I will be told to massage my breasts. Do the massages help the implant drop? If I follow the doctors directions religiously by massaging them every day for the amount of time I am suppose to, does that make them drop faster?
