My breast are too close after surgery. Do I have symmastia, do I need to wear tong bra. Thank you.
Answer: Symmastia? Thank you for your question. Based on your photo, you do not have symmastia. However, I would still speak to your plastic surgeon for more specific post op instructions to prevent it.

Answer: No synmastia Dear Mycontract: It is quite early in your postoperative course and your body has yet to make enough room to comfortably fit your implants which is why they appear compressed and a bit misshapen. This will improve over time and they will look more natural. You do not have a synmastia.Best of luck to you!G. Robert Meger MD

Answer: Symmastia Dear mycontract,based on your photo, it doesn't look like you have symmastia. 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 very early stages of the healing process at 7 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.Daniel Barrett, MD, MHA, MS

Answer: Symmastia after augmentation From your photo, it does appear that you may have a symmastia. You dont mention if the implants were placed on top of the muscle , as appears to be the case. If so, relocating them to a submuscular position would address the problem. Otherwise, a casulorraphy procedure would be required to correct. You should discuss your concerns with your surgeon.

Answer: Breast Augmentation and symmastia You do not appear to have symmastia. Bra wearing protocols vary from surgeon to surgeon. You should check with your surgeon's protocol. At 1 week you are about 5 percent healed, settled, softened, shaped, dropped and fluffed. Much change is coming.Dr. Ted Eisenberg, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and Author
