What To Expect After Breast Augmentation
By A Aaronson
The primary question asked by women considering breast augmentation surgery is what they will look like after surgery. The answer to this question is a bit complex because your breasts will change over the six month period following your enhancement surgery.
While you may be very swollen immediately after surgery, that swelling will subside within the first couple of weeks post-op. In addition, your implants will move around a bit and settle at the bottom of your breasts over time as well. Any Board Certified plastic surgeon should be able to show you before and after photos of women who have had the procedure and what they looked like over the time following the surgery.
These photos will help ease your mind, and will show you what you should expect from your own surgery.
Immediately After Surgery
In the time immediately after surgery, you might be surprised to see your shape. You will be experiencing what is referred to by plastic surgeons as "superpole fullness." This is completely normal and to be expected.
What happens is the breast implant has not yet settled to the bottom of the breasts, and in combination with swelling, you will look very full at the top. Over time this swelling will decrease, the implants will move down, and you will have less fullness in the top portion of your breasts. The superpole fullness can be a problem in wearing such revealing clothing as a swimsuit, but other than that you will appear fairly normal to anyone who sees you in regular clothing.
In the Months That Follow
In the four to six months that follow augmentation surgery you can expect all of the swelling to go down and for your implants to settle into the lower portion of your breasts.
This will remove the superpole fullness and allow you to look much more natural and in the proper placement on your chest. Within as little as two weeks you will find that the look of your breasts is much better, and the final result will be what you see at 6 months post-surgery.
In addition to the look of your new breasts, you should be prepared for what they will feel like to touch. Immediately following surgery you will be swollen and the tissues will feel very hard. However, as time passes this will subside and you will start to feel softer and much more normal.
By the magical six month post-op date you will look and feel how they will from then on out.
Most patients are surprised with the recovery process of breast enhancement surgery. While the swelling can be painful and uncomfortable, most patients are surprised at how the recovery process progresses and report that they assumed it would be worse than it actually was. As with any surgical procedure, make sure you work with a Board Certified plastic surgeon and have them discuss any concerns you have before you undergo any surgery.
