WORTH IT$8,600
I had one implant that bottomed out. Dr fixed that and tightened the entire lift. Ended up with a severe hematoma on one side. Hurt so bad! Would not stop bleeding had to go in two days later after complaining over and over to get it fixed as the bleeding would not stop. It was horrible. They had to clean it out and cauterize the bleeding. They look better than they did as far as the buttomed out breast shape but the scaring was much worse this time. My nipples are different sizes this time around, last time they were perfect.... And I now have a dog war on the left side. I'd love to have it fixed but I had to pay for the repair surgery and the third surgery to fix the repair surgery two days later so I guess I have to suck it up. Over all better than before any surgery but lots of complications and additional surgery costs and also as an FYI high profiles mean NO CLEAVAGE

Things are alright... I have an apt with dr. Otoole in July to see if things are okay. I'm feeling like something is going on. I've lost all poke volume in my left breast :( they look better than preop but not feeling happy with the rests as they are very uneven.

I think your breasts look fabulous. I don't see any imbalance or the other things you've mentioned. All the best.

I know from experience, the high profile implant is, in general, the most narrow implant, so between that and the large volume (500cc) the implants look to have mild bottom out, gravity is not on your side with a narrow, heavy implant. Upper pole fullness is best had with the moderate profile implant. I went through this with my first BA... and was pissed! I'm just trying to give you some insight as to the changes you see and I guess your dr. didn't explain this...

Thanks so much for the info I will bring this up in July when I see him I'm sure left is bottomed out. Wish I was like 100cc or more smaller with the right profile! I'm really pissed to have spent so much traveled 7 hours away and be dealing with this crap. I know as a wls patient my tissue is thinner but the difference on my breasts was almost immediate :( the dr is very nice listens and I hope will be more than willing to fix things at a minimal cost :(

well, if it were me, I would have smaller replacements done asap, as when it happened to me I had, in time, "stretched" about a cup size, and in order to have smaller implants put in, i also needed a small lift (originally I was an A cup and not saggy at all). When it happened to me, i also couldn't get tops/ bras to fit well, but the most telltale sign was my nipples were pointed a little upward, as the implant went further downward. I would certainly share your concerns with your dr. sooner rather than later, trust me, gravity only knows one direction. :/

Ya the left nipple pops outa my bra!!! The right implant is still really high. If he will cover implant cost is do. 350 or 400

Talk with your dr., see what he says about your current implants, ask if there is anything he can do to improve the situation, esp. with your nipple placement, although generally, the dr. may waive his fee for a do-over, but you may have to cover the implants if you want to go a different size.

Your breast look beautiful, i dont see what you are refering to. But its all about what you see and happy with.

Have you had your appointment yet to see what's going on? I think you look great. I'm sorry that you aren't happy with your results though.
