2 Weeks After Breast Augmentation. Dropping? (photo)

Question

2 weeks post op seems that my right has dropped it's not as high as my left side..just wondering if you can drop this early?!

Jeffrey J. Roth, MD, FACS · Answer

Thank you for your question.  You are still early in your post operative course. What you are seeing mostly is spasm and swelling in the upper part. They usually will get to their final position in 6 to 12 months.  One will usually drop faster than the other, and the shape may go through various changes.  Please follow your Board Certified Plastic Surgeon's post op instructions. For example; we like message, but some surgeons will have you wait, or do it in a specific manner. Please let them know your thoughts and concerns.

I occassionally see implants dropping at different times.  Importantly support the implant is in good position and encourage the high implant to settle with time, massage, and banding.  You should probably visit with your plastic surgeon and review that surgeon's experience with this issue.

Jaime Perez, MD · Answer

Hello. Two weeks is not enough time for the implants to settle. Your implants will not settle for about another three months and I would not be too worried about your outcome until then. It is not uncommon for one breast to drop faster than the other.

Thanks for your post. Breast implants behave differently on each side and it is common for one side to drop faster than another. Best wishes, Dr. Aldo.

You might consider smaller implants.  Best wishes. Knowledge is power.  Luis F. Villar MD FACS
