Could I be experiencing capsular contracture 6 months after my breast lift with implants? (photos)

Thank you for your question. It's possible that the symptoms you're describing—pain and the implant seeming higher on one side—are signs of capsular contracture, particularly if they occur six months after the surgery. An examination is essential to give you an accurate diagnosis and go over the possible management with you. Medication, massage, or, in certain situations, surgery to replace the implant and remove scar tissue may all be part of the treatment approach.

Thanks for your inquiry and pictures, but without an exam it is harder to advise. Your implants generally fall over the first few months, and now at six months they may not move much more. You either have implant malposition or bilateral encapsulation left worse than right. Please discuss with your surgeon your options.
