Female, age 25 5’4 120lb I had a breast augmentation surgery done last year. My doctor said a lift was not needed only an augmentation, but now I realize there’s no space between my breast It’s connected along with drooping skin and rippling
Answer: Symmastia and breast deformity It looks that too large implants are the reason for current condition. Breast are together, there is no normal separation between them, condition known as symmastia; visible implant rippling both on lateral and medial side, small amount of breast tissue covering implants, displaced nipples, etc. correction should include smaller implants, possibly placement underneath the muscle, correction of symmastia, correction of lower breast crease (IMF) and breast lift. In person or teleconference consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon expert in breast surgery is recommended. Hope this helps.

It is best that you visit your plastic surgeon for further assessment or ask for a second opinion. Only after a thorough examination, you can get proper recommendations and advice.

Answer: In person Thanks for your question! I would suggest seeking an in person evaluation. There are a couple of things at play here, and I think revision will be your best choice. That being said, you should be seen in person to determine exactly what needs to be done. Good luck!

Answer: Breasts Your implants are much too large for your tissue and frame, and are smashed together because they are just too large for your breast bases. Also, your tissue is now stretched thinly and ripples are showing through. You need to go down in size, and you may need mesh for better support.

Answer: Need help! Why are my breasts so close together after surgery? Also should there be extra skin and rippling? (Photo) Looking at photos, your implants appear to be way too large for your breasts. In order to try to accommodate your breasts your surgeon most likely needed to enlarge the breast pockets as extensively as possible in order to accommodate the large implants I would suggest that you return to your surgeon and replace the implants with smaller implants. The inner border of your breast pockets may also need to be made smaller. If a breast lift is needed then it should be done together with the replacement of the implants. Good luck!
