Lateral Displacement of Right Breast 4 Months Post-Op Benelli Lift, What are my Options? (photo)
4 and a half months ago i had breast augmentation with a benelli lift, i had 325 R and 300 in the left. Right from the start there were noticeable differences in he appearance of my right breast, it was more square and sat lower on my chest, it was far smaller than my left breast and seemed to sit closer to under my arm. my right breast now appears to sit under my arm and when lying down slides under my arm. I have been checked for cc and it is not present.

Breast implant position and asymmetry
Although surgeons do their best in attempting to make breasts as symmetrical as possible, when performing a breast augmentation, post operative breast asymmetry can occasionally occur. This can be due to one breast pocket stretching more than the other, shortly after the procedure; or one breast capsule contracting more as post operative scar tissue forms. One option is to do breast massage on the tighter, higher breast only, and wearing a bra that minimizes movement on the...

The implan is malpositioned but not extremely so. Unless you have discomfort, the decision for more surgery is a highly personal one.

Lateral Breast Implant Malposition Correction
Thank you for the question and pictures.
Sounds like you made the diagnosis yourself; lateral and inferior breast implant malposition.
One of the most common complications after breast augmentation surgery is implant mal-position. This occurs when the implant is in an incorrect position on the chest wall. This may include incorrect position of the implant superiorly (“riding high”), inferiorly (“bottoming out”), medially (“symmastia or...
