9 months post-op - Do my nipples appear too high? (Photo)

Your nipples are probably not too high, but you have some excess lower breast tissue which can be easily removed from the lower incision. In doing this, your nipples will no longer appear too high or pop out of your bathing suits and bras.

Hi and welcome to our forum!
From your photos, the distance from the top of the breast bone to the nipples appears normal, the distance from nipples to the fold beneath the breasts appears increased and there appears to be loss of superior breast pole fullness.
The nipples don't appear high....the breasts appear low.
This is compatible with "bottoming out", a condition in which the weight of the implant has stretched the skin at the inferior breast poles. This is not uncommon as pregnancy often overstretches and damages the skin. It loses its elasticity and tends to stretch more easily. It is more likely to occur if a large implant was utilized or if you demonstrate weakened connective tissue.
This can be corrected with an infraareolar mastopexy. One may consider placing Galaflex mesh to reinforce the inferior breast poles to prevent recurrence.
Discuss this issue with your plastic surgeon.
Best wishes...

Hello @Chickadee013, thank you for your question and showing your picture. It is possible to reposition and improve the shape of the breast with minimal scarring by raising the base slightly and improving the overall proportion. This will create overall harmony. For more information and recommendations is best to consult with one or several board certified plastic surgeons. Best wishes! Alan Gonzalez MD, FACS.
