How long for breasts to round out after BR/BL?

I'm having a breast reduction/lift 4/30... and I had my pre-op appointment on this past Monday.  The nurse told me that right after surgery my breasts will look rounded on the outer and inner sides, but a little flat and strange in the middle area.  She said after a bit of time the tissue redistributes and the breasts round back out to a normal shape. 

If you had a reduction and/or lift (no implants), how long did it take until the breast shape normalized?  I know that how quickly feeling returns will vary greatly, but am hoping to get an idea of how long it'll be before my breasts look actually NORMAL again, lol...

THANK YOU for any info you can provide... and any tips are welcome, too.

 I think mine looked normal right away.  I'm four months out and see a little change but not much.  The sensitivity in my right breast came back much faster than the left. The incisions on the right side look much lighter as well.

I had sensitivity immediately after surgery. My implants were placed under the muscle, and 6 weeks out are still working on dropping. It really varies per person but under muscles ones take longer.
