Before and 6 weeks after breast augmentation and correction of nipple position in tubular breasts using smooth round silicone gel implants in a 26 year old woman.
A periareolar mastopexy moved the nipples and areolas to a higher, centralized and more youthful position and decreased her large areola size. The breast folds were lowered, and the breast implant replaced missing volume at the bottom of the breast – this is especially evident in the images with the arms up overhead.
See the marks from an underwire bra where her breasts were not filling out the cup of the bra before surgery. After surgery, her breasts are rounder and fuller at the bottom, and a more aesthetic breast shape was created.
In these early postoperative photos taken at 6 weeks, incisions are pink and fresh, due to increased blood flow to the incisions during their healing period. Note the breast shape is rounder, fuller and more natural after surgery. It takes up to a full year for all scars to mature and become faded, flat and soft.
