Flat Breast After Augmentation

Hello. Your issue may be due to a small amount of breast tissue on the upper pole of the breast. If this is true, a fat graft could add volume to the area and improve the appearance and feel. You should consult your doctor to get a better understanding of the issue. Jaime Perez, MD Breast Augmentation Specialist Plastic Surgery Center of Tampa

Silicone implant do not loose volume like saline implants

Silicone gel does not get absorbed by your body like saline dose. Thus when a saline implant leaks it deflates. The same should not happen to a silicone implant. Thus when you describe 'empty bag' appearance question is what exactly are you describing? A picture of you standing upright and bending over would be helpful. Sincerely, Martin Jugenburg, Toronto Cosmetics Surgery Institute

Appearance after augmentation

Without photographs it is difficult to know exactly what you are describing. You should consult with your board certified plastic surgeon to show them what you mean. You may also add some photographs here for the rest of to try to get a better understanding of what is concerning you.
