Continue reading to learn about the healing process of your breast implants after surgery, softening, and the lowering and lifting process after breast augmentation.
When will my breast implants soften?
This question is also commonly asked as “how long does it take for my breast augmentation implants to droop and swell?”
In general, everyone’s recovery time after breast enlargement is different. This process, called drooping and swelling, can take anywhere from eight weeks to six months. In some cases, however, the “drop and swell” process can take six months to a year, and if your breasts still feel hard at this point, it is recommended that you consult your plastic surgeon.
What is dropping and fluffing after breast augmentation?
After breast augmentation surgery, implants are initially placed in pockets created in the breast tissue. These implants may sit higher on the breast immediately after surgery, but they will gradually settle into a more natural position. This process is called “dropping,” where the implants move downward as the muscles and tissues relax.
As the implants settle, they also expand and fill out the lower part of the breasts, a process called “lifting.” The drop and lift together help the breasts to take on a softer, fuller, and rounder appearance as healing progresses.
Why should you wait for dropping and fluffing to see results?
It is essential to wait for the drop and lift process as this allows the implants to settle into their final position and shape. Initially, the implants may appear high, tight or uneven. Also, your skin and muscles become tighter after the surgery and take time to relax. As the skin, muscles and tissues adjust, the breasts will take on a more natural and aesthetic appearance.
Do breast implants get bigger when they drop and fluff?
Breast implants do not actually increase in size during the drop and bulge process, but they may appear larger as they settle into a more natural position. As the implants drop, they fill out the lower part of the breasts, creating a fuller, rounder appearance. The overall appearance softens and becomes more proportional over time.
How can you make your implants drop faster?
The most important thing you can do to help your implants fall out and swell more quickly is to follow your plastic surgeon’s healing instructions.
Here’s what you may be asked to do about your breast augmentation surgery recovery:
- Avoid intense and strenuous physical activity until you heal.
- Wear supportive compression garments.
- Avoid tobacco use and excessive alcohol consumption.
- Your plastic surgeon may recommend daily breast massages. You can gently massage your implants up and down, in and out, several times a day.
- Attending appointments with your surgeon.
