Breast lift - NO implant - Dented breast - 3 weeks post op, is this botched or do I need to wait it out? (photos)

Thanks for the photos and question.The photos are somewhat concerning. It is usually prudent to wait 6-12 weeks to have a good idea of what the final results might be. If your breast looks like this after 12 weeks, then you will need to discuss options with your surgeon.I think fat transfer or implants may be an option to help correct this situation. If you choose fat transfer, you may have to wait 6 month to a year to let your breasts soften up, so that the breast will have a better chance to accept the fat.Good luck and keep good communication with your surgeon.

Dear CandJ09,I understand your concern and it is quite normal to be concerned about the outcome following a breast lift surgery. However, you are still in the very early stages of the healing process.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 are still swollen. Once the swelling subsides you will be able to see the final result of your surgery.Daniel Barrett, MD
