Do I Have Double Bubble and How Can This Be Fixed? (photo)

Hello, i had a second breast surgery with 600 cc Mc Ghan implants to correct sagging breasts. It seems the dr placed the implants too low to correct the sagging appearance , which worked, but it also gave me double bubble. How can this be corrected? Should i try mastopexy through the areola or re - position the implants higher again? Thanks

Double bubble ? or skin looseness?

In this one photo, I honestly don't see the classic double-bubble appearance - it looks more like a little skin laxity / looseness. While that could be excised, leaving an inframammary scar... I don't think it is worth the trade-off at this point. Might be better to leave well enough alone.

Double bubble?

I do not see the double bubble inthe one photo you posted. It is best to be evaluated in person. You may need to go smaller and have the fold fixed if that is the case.

Only one posted photo and too little information for an over the internet answer. Best to seek in person second opinions. I do not see the doubling.

" Double Bubble”?

Thank you for the question. It is hard to make an accurate diagnosis based on the picture provided. If your implant has settled below the inframammary fold, then I would suggest "reconstruction” of the inframammary fold area using internal sutures (capsulorraphy). I would favor this approach over any type of mastopexy that would leave additional scars on your breasts. If you decide to embark on revisionary surgery make sure your plastic surgeon... more
