10 days - Do my breasts look normal? 250cc round high profile (photo)

Hi Conscious_Girl,

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 10 days post op.

You 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.

Good afternoon!You definitely look totally normal, and it's still very early- just sit back and let your body heal!

Hi Concious_girl,
Thank you for the pictures and question.
You are only 10 days post surgery so your breasts look entirely in-keeping with this. Over the coming moths your breasts soft-tissue swelling, that occurs as a result of the surgery and having an implant, will start to go down, and your implants will drop to rest in their final position.
Stay in touch with your operating surgeon, follow their advice and instructions and with a little time and patience I am sure you will be very happy with your new breasts.
Best wishes,
Marcus
