As part of our vlog series, Mr Gary Ross is discussing breast augmentation results in relation to breast implant changes over time. This is a popular question during consultations, but also uncommon knowledge to most: how your breast implant results immediately look after surgery isn’t how they will look even 6 weeks later or 1 year later.
Breast Implants After Surgery
It can be common for patients to feel pain and discomfort in the chest region shortly after having breast augmentation surgery. The reason for this is due to the tissue expanding as a result of the implants being inserted. This is normal, especially when a patient wants to increase their breast size by a lot. Pair that with swelling from the surgery, which can leave you unsure about your breast implant results initially.
Throughout the video, there are 3 example case studies provided, which show the different results of breast augmentation surgery at 1 to 6 weeks and 5 years later; some additional case studies are below.
You can also visit our breast augmentation case study page to see more examples of results from our breast implant results and changes over time.
What Is Drop and Fluff?
Mr Ross, during the vlog, mentions the ‘drop and fluff’ effect on the breast implant results and changes over time, which is a common impact that breasts go through after breast augmentation surgery. More detail is provided in the video; however, drop and fluff is when your implants are first placed, and the muscles are tight, leaving them to ‘ride high’. Over time, the muscles relax and implants settle in a natural position.
Each procedure can have different results depending on genetics, volume of implant, breast tissue and breast implant placement. If you happen to be unhappy with your breast implant results, consult with Mr Ross for evaluations and discussions on breast augmentation revisions.
