Hi I am 5ft6 age 34 Ihad my 1st breast augmentation aug 21 & had to have them redone due to waterfall/capsular contracture- my 1st implants was 325cc hp round textured, 2nd time 375 ultra hp round textured - I was a 32/34 B before- I am now 10 month post op but I feel that my nipple is low and not much breast underneath and they don’t look round to me - my consultant says they look fine and measure 19.5cm when measuring to my nipple - but I’m still left worried and disappointed? Thanks
