Answer Snippet
Are my breasts too high for 7 weeks post op?
Post operative recovery with breast implants
May 3, 2015
May 3, 2015
Thank you for your question. I agree with the other comments you have received. It is important to consider if the implants have been settling over the past 7 weeks slowly, or if they have stayed in the same position. You are still in the recovery period after your breast augmentation, and commonly the implants can sit high in the breast creating that shape. It would not be uncommon for this to take several months to settle.In addition, this is a new volume for your breast tissue…
How do you choose implant profile?
Breast Implant Profile
Apr 21, 2015
Apr 21, 2015
Thank you for the question. As you have mentioned, there are lots of different types of implants and different projections. Every woman has an ideal image of how they would like their breast to look, and this is a very personal decision. The goal for your breast surgery is to help you achieve the look and feel that you are most excited about. There is a spectrum of looks possible, from natural to augmented, and different volume implants with different projections will contribute to this….
Opened incision after breast lift and implants. What to do?
Breast implants and opened incision
Apr 20, 2015
Apr 20, 2015
Thank you for your question. I agree with the comments you have already received. The picture you have shown is a little hard to see, however the opening does appear quite superficial. If that is the case, it should heal with some dressings and wound care. This would most likely not be closed surgically, as a small opening should heal okay on its own.That being said, as was mentioned in your other comments, if the incision is larger and more open, there is a risk to the…
Moderate profile or high profile?
High profile and moderate profile implants
Apr 19, 2015
Apr 19, 2015
Thank you for the question. In general, the difference with these types of implants is how much they project. Every woman has an ideal image of how they would like their breast to look, and this is a very personal decision. The goal for your breast surgery is to help you achieve the look and feel that you are most excited about. There is a spectrum of looks possible, from natural to augmented, and different volume implants with different projections will contribute to…
Do I have tubular breast deformity?
Breast deformity
Apr 8, 2015
Apr 8, 2015
Thank you for your question. Your photos do demonstrate a shape that would be on a spectrum of a tuberous breast deformity. This is more common than most patient think, and can be quite subtle for some people, or more noticeable for others. One component that your photos show is a tight lower pole to the breast, which can be seen with the short distance from your nipple to your breast crease. There are several different approaches to improve the appearance of the breast and nipple…
After a breast augmentation under the muscle, when will I be 100 percent cleared to work in a fast
Return to strenuous activities after breast augmentation
Apr 4, 2015
Apr 4, 2015
Thank you for the question. Part of your time frame for recover and return to activities depends on your surgery details and post operative course. Your plastic surgeon can advise you best on what they think would be reasonable for you to do, and things to avoid.Typically, most patients by 4 weeks are ready to return to full activities, including exercise and strenuous work. That being said, often a gradual return can allow for an easier transition, as you have not been…
2 days after augmentation, Is this the size my Boob?
Breast augmentation recovery
Apr 3, 2015
Apr 3, 2015
Thank you for your question. You are very early in your recovery after your breast augmentation, and commonly the implants can sit high in the breast creating that shape. In addition, this is a new volume for your breast tissue and skin and it can take some time to stretch-out and create a more aesthetic shape. After 2 days, this will not be your final shape and you can keep reminding yourself that you are very early after surgery. I agree with your other…
