700cc implants. Opinions on 2 week post-op results? (photos)

Hi deedeedy,

I understand your concern and it is quite normal to be concerned about the outcome following a breast augmentation surgery. However, you are still in the early stages of the healing process at 14 days post op.

Your will need to be patient at this moment and follow what your surgeon has instructed you to do post operatively.

At the early stage of the healing process, the tissues around the implants are still swollen. Once the swelling subsides and the implants drop to their final position, you will be able to see the final result of your breast augmentation surgery.

Dropping of implants is part of the healing process and this occurs after the tissues surrounding the implants slowly relax, allowing the implants to settle into their final position. It can take about four to six months for the implant to drop down to their final position. Also, your breasts can drop at different rates.

But if you are still concerned, you can always visit your plastic surgeon and discuss your concerns. This way, you will be reassured. Also, if after six months, you are not satisfied with the appearance of your breast, you can visit your plastic surgeon and discuss the possibility of revision surgery.

Lastly, follow your plastic surgeons post-operative instructions and advice for faster healing and recovery.

It is not proper to make a clinical diagnosis or treatment plan based on photographs alone. That said, the redness in both breasts suggests some inflammation that resembles cellulitis. It is best to follow up with your surgeon. If you are inquiring as to the aesthetic outcome it appears very nice. Best of luck to you. 

You are short time , 2weeks post breast augmentation. I undrestand that the redness is a troubling sign. It may or may not depends on the exam you will have hopefully soon. 
Are the breasts very warm to touch. ?
I have seen such redness post op that comes and goes and eventually disappears. If the redness is accompanied by warm to touch and tender please ask your doctor to give you an opinion about them. Sometimes a course of 1 week steroids may alliviaye this situation 
Don’t rush into conclusion. Aksk your doctor to deliver an answer.  
Many thanks
