Q:

I had a breast lift and augmentation six months ago. The implants were placed submuscular, but I think they have moved far to the outsides of my breasts. Is it too late to keep my breasts wrapped so the muscle heals together under my arms?

A:

In general, things don't change much after 3 or 4 months, so I would have to say that getting back into the type of garment that it sounds like you used right after surgery will probably not be worthwhile. It is always best to try to see your surgeon and get his/her opinion. You may need a revisional procedure which most surgeons will do for a minimal expense.
