| Results from Breast Implant Surgery
While patients will of course see results immediately after surgery, there is always some swelling that develops. During the first week after surgery, the breasts and surrounding area are swollen and the implants may appear "high". Over the course of several weeks to months the swelling subsides and the tissues stretch to accommodate the implant creating a more natural appearance. Patients with smaller breast size to start may take longer for the implants to settle. Also, patients who request larger implants may also require more time for the implants to settle and the tissues to stretch out to accomodate the breast implant.
Complications of Breast Implant Surgery
As with any surgery, complications can develop following breast augmentation. Fortunately complications are unusual. Some of the complications which can occur following augmentation are: bleeding; infection; capsular contracture; and deflation. All of the relevant risks related to your surgery will discuss these with you in detail.
