I Am Concerned About Bottoming Out, What's The Probability? (photo)

I feel like I have very weak breast tissue, and loose skin on my breasts. The skin on the rest of my body is very thick and nice. I know bottoming out is a factor, but how likely am I to bottom out? Does bottoming out occur more often than capsular contracture? Thank you
