Frequently Asked Questions -
Massage & Stretch Marks

How will implants effect existing stretch marks?

Breast augmentation tightens the skin, flattening stretch marks out and making them less noticeable.

Do you recommend massage. How is it done, and why?

Dr. Zevon does recommend massage, beginning 3 days after surgery. Gently knead (squeeze) the breast for several minutes, several times a day. You should massage at least until the implants settle. Dr. Zevon recommends continuing to massage your implants to minimize the likelihood of occurrence of capsular contracture.
