Honest feedback needed. Getting very worried

WildBerry · 09-20-2009, 11:37 PM

Dr. Pelletiere I am 9 weeks post op BL/breast augmentation 650cc silicone unders HP. I am huge, which I would not mind, but I have no shape. Just this mass on my chest. I have no idea what is going on. It looks horrible. Any feedback would be great.

Dr. Pelletiere · 09-21-2009, 05:10 PM

Anytime you incorporate a lift and an augmentation, it can take a minimum of three months for everything to settle, swelling to go down, etc. I would just be patient. Give things another month and then go from there. If you are still having problems, then bring them up with your surgeon at that time. 650cc HP are very large implants, and it is going to take some time for everything to get adjusted to the size, not to mention the skin that has been tightened around as well.

You will have to send your progression photos via email to the office ( email address below). I could not see any on your profile. Remember, it can take 3-6 months for everything to change, settle, etc. If you email your pics, though, I can give you a more educated opinion on what may or may not still need to happen.

Wildberry-

All I see is swelling and puffiness. Mine looked similar and now look. Let it settle, you had much more trauma than a normal breast augmentation.
