Few days post op breast lift w/out implant

Had a breast lift w/out implant 5 days ago. I love the fullness of the tops of my breast, but when I took off the bandages the bottom/underside of my breast look somewhat deformed. One side looks like a cone with a flat bottom and the other side is somewhat flattened as well. Is this from the compression bra and bandages?? Will they end up looking normal?? Is it normal to have some deformed looking shapes at first?? PLEASE if you can help answer this do so as soon as possible. I'm freaking out a little.

    I had a breast lift without implants too. After my breast lift, I remember it takes a little time for them to shape up and look normal. Be sure to express your concerns with your plastic surgeon.

Thanks sweet pea. I go Friday to have my sutures removed and I'll definitely say something then. I'm just really nervous about how they look at the moment. Not that worrying will do me any good. Lol

I have had two breast reductions. I was a 42HHH. Managed to go down to a DD on the first one. but gained 60 lbs , so the got bigger again. Had another reduction 5 years after and am now a 38C. I am currently over 260lbs, will be having RYN next month. With both surgeries it was very lumpy, hard and deformed looking. I jokingly called them "Frankenstein-boobs". But both times they softened up into a very lovely round shape. You will start noticing it with in the first two months. Keep wearing your support garments.

Thanks jules75!!! Any feed back I can get helps. I just didn't think to ask ahead of time if they would come out perfectly shaped immediately. My brain tells me that they'll smooth out and eventually look normal, but then there is the side that is freaking out. So your encouraging words help a lot!!

There is a healing period and your body and breast will adjust to surgical lift you had. I agree it is extremly important to talk with your surgeon and ask questions too. I had one when I was younger, the funny thing is how sensitive my breast are after all these years.
