Breast Implants Moving In Pocket
how long does it take for Breast Implants to drop?
I got my implants 3weeks ago they are saline and behind the muscle.They seem to drop when I lay down and massage but as soon as I sit up they get hard and move up.They look really funny and full at the top and sag at the bottom is this normal?Has anyone had this happen to them?I was told by my ps that I need to massage and wear a strap over the top of them to push them down in place to where the made the pocket for them…but How do I know if the pocket closed without the implant in it?Any info is helpful thanks
Your only 3 weeks out, so you’ve got a little more dropping to do. As long as you keep massaging, the pockets will not close. The implant drops as the muscle releases it (assuming you went under the muscle). This can take from 5 weeks to even maybe 8 weeks. The next stage after dropping is called “fluffing” this is when you skin will stretch to accodomate the implant. So basically you skin will soften and not be so tight. As for the strap, I had to wear one 24/7 for 6 weeks and I feel that it helped me out a lot in dropping. Everyones body chemistry is different, so we all heal differently. If you have any concerns, you should call your plastic surgeon for reassurance.
There is also a super great website/forum that I used when I was researching implants, and I still use it today. It has before/after pictures, facts, lots of personal experiences, and even real plastic surgeons that help answering questions. Take a look, there is a topic for every stage of healing!
