Can low implants from premature dropping be lifted permanently with the use of an underwire / supportive bra?

It is unlikely that a supportive bra will correct implants that have dropped too low. It is a good idea to wear a good fitting bra and avoid strenuous activity or bouncing until cleared by your surgeon to avoid further dropping. I encourage you to discuss your concerns with your surgeon.

Hello. Not really. Maybe special tape on the infra-mammary fold for an extensive amount of time. But usually revision surgery is needed to lift the breast and or to lift/redo the infra mammary fold.
Remember, it is good to wait around 6 months for a revision. So I suggest you try anything for now, and just be patient until its time for a revision.

Best of luck,

If the implants are too low after breast augmentation, it is unlikely that wearing a supportive bra will lift them into a higher position permanently. There is no harm in trying, but you would likely need revision surgery to properly position the implants. Implants tend to drop too low because of a combination of implant size (too large), loss of control of the lower fold of the breasts, and/or weak tissues that cannot support the implant. Any plan to correct the implant position should consider these factors. I would recommend discussing your concerns with your surgeon to determine the best course of action.

Dear atomickitty4460,
I understand your concern. It is best that you consult your plastic surgeon regarding post operative care and management specific to your case. Your surgeon knows your condition well and has preferences on when and what to use for faster healing and recovery. It is best, however, that you follow your plastic surgeon's advice on post operative care management for a smooth and faster healing and recovery.

Thank you for your question. It is difficult to answer specifically without knowing when your surgery was, and evaluating you in person, but if your surgery was very recent, wearing an underwire bra 24/7 for 6-8 weeks may prove to be helpful. It would be best to discuss your concerns with your plastic surgeon. If your implants are smooth surfaced, and they are indeed positioned too low, if a bra does not correct the problem you may have to undergo revision surgery to correct this. If they are textured, they tend to stay put without being able to reposition them very easily. When in doubt, you can always seek a second opinion. The bra trial can certainly do no harm. Best of luck to you.
