Day 8post op with 450 and 500cc implants. My boobs feel so small. Will they fill up on the lower pole when they drop? I'm sooooo upset I was expecting really big boobs and they're tiny (I'm quite curvey myself I have an hourglass shape so bigger boobs look best on me). I feel I've wasted almost 5k

Answer: 450cc and 500cc implants my boobs feel too small. Any suggestions? Please relax and try to understand that it is far too early to be concerned about the size of your breasts after breast augmentation.The 450 cc and 500 cc breast implants are quite large and should increase your breasts size by at least 2 cups.This early after your surgery the breast implant is compressed and spread out by the pressure of the overlying tissues and you can see on your photographs that the breast implants are very high and spread out and thus look much smaller. It will take at least 3 months for the implants to drop and normalize and I am quite confident that she will have much larger looking breast once the implants have settled.I understand and sympathize with your concern and it is very very common this early after surgery. However if he were my patient I would want you to express her concerns directly to me and not follow Internet advice.

Answer: Breast Size Yes, it is very normal for breasts to be high and tight this soon after surgery, especially if you had very small breasts to begin with. You just recently had surgery and it is still too soon to see any noticeable results. The skin needs time to stretch to accommodate the new implants and settle into place. Right now it is too soon to access how they will permanently look. Most implants "drop" within 2-3 months following surgery but everyone is different and some people can take up to a year before the implants settle into their permanent position. The lower pole should fill up more after they drop. Give it time and be patient and the shape and size will improve over time. Check with your surgeon to determine their recommendations.
