Tear Drop Implant Rotated

Without examining you it is difficult to answer this question. However, one of the risks of tear drop, or anatomic implants is that if they rotate, they will cause the breast to look distorted which can lead to another surgery.

Teardrop implants

If you have concerns that your implant has rotated, then I suggest that you see your surgeon. This is one reason whay I am not a big fan of the tear drop implants.

Teardrop implants sometimes rotate resulting in an abnormal look.

Anatomic implants may sound sexy but they are textured (and more likely to be palpable); they have also rotated resulting in an abnormal look. I generally avoid these but use them for breast reconstruction.   Call your PS asap and let them know you feel as if the implant has rotated. It is quite possible that this is what you are feeling.  Rotating teardrops is why most people choose round implants.  see video

Just like you described. One of the risks of using "TearDrop" or anatomic implants is the rotational factor. See your surgeon ASAP to correct externally or maybe you will need internal operative revision/correction. Sorry. From MIAMI Dr. Darryl j. Blinski PS That is why I RARELY use or recommend these implants.

Rotated implant

This may best be answered by your plastic surgeon who can examine you and determine if there is any change in your implant. More likely however, you are still experiencing some changes related to your recent surgery.
