Recommendation would be to remove implant and decrease size by at least 100-150cc .Thus will make the upper. Rest less full more natural looking but the trade off is the areola will still look a little low on breast. You could always lift the areola so it is more centered on the implant and breast mound.

Your abdominoplasty was a difficult one because you did not have upper abdominal skin laxity or much lower abdominal skin laxity. Your main problem was the rectus diastasis.to fix the diastasis you have to elevate the skin to the upper abdomen to tighten the entire rectus muscle of the abdomen. This is why you have a verticle scar from closing your belly button site.results are typical for this punt of skin stretch. The scars can be lowered some and the skin can be tightened a little more to improve result which could be done under local anesthesia.

Here in Miami I do mommy makeovers weekly, as well as Brazilian buttock lifts.This procedure takes 1.5 hours for the abdominoplasty and 2.5 hours for the breast lift with implants, if necessary for improved cleavage and projection.The fat transfer for the buttocks lift takes about 1 hour.The enjoyment of your new figure, just like it was was when you where 20 years old- priceless!!

You do not have tuberous breast. You have the normal breast appearance following childbirth and breast feeding. You have lost breast volume with some breast ptosis as evident with the low nipple areola position in relation to the center of your breast.For a natural shape and size that would complement your height and chest a full B cup to small C cup would be ideal. I would recommend a submuscular (dual plane) placement of a smooth silicone implant with about 300cc. Then raise the areola up about 2 centimeters and make the areola smaller in diameter.This approach would give you projection behind the areola, give you a natural shaped breast proportional to your figure. Make sure you see a board certified plastic surgeon that specializes in breast lifting and breast augmentation. Here in Miami there is no shortage of silicone- trust me!Phillip Craft MD Board Certified Plastic Surgeon

Most of my patient that have had a tummy tuck or mini tummy tuck swear by a hook and eye compression garment or a abdominal binder. Plastic surgery data has not shown that a garment or compression improves the ultimate outcome. However , my patients for that last 15 years feel the compression they get from an abdominal binder or a good compression garment reduces their swelling and and gives them a sense of security and comfort during the recovery period.Following a tummy tuck when the patients have a drain in to help prevent a seroma fluid collection , I have the patients wear a abdominal garment for its ease of use with good compression and comfort. After a week I have the patients switch to a compression garment( Lipoexpress/ Marena) hook and eye only!!Zipper garments bunch up and can be seen under clothes and compression is not as good.Patients wear compression garment at least a month if not two months at least 12 hours of the day.There is no question that the swelling time is decreased and patient comfort using the compression garments!! There has been many patients that start off prior to surgery wearing a 12 - 14 size dress and after tummy tuck and liposuction of waist end up after 2-6 months of garment time they are in a size 8 dress. Unbelievable.. Dr. Phillip Craft Miami Florida Board Certified Plastic Surgeon

You can revise your breast and recovery should be around a week. You can pick up the baby no problem- you are using your back muscles doing this. The question is why do you need a revision? Are you looking for a lifting/tightening procedure or are you looking for more volume lost from breast feeding. To best help you determine the right look for your body, seek out a surgeon who uses 3D imaging during the consult. Very effective tool to help you see your options on your body to be sure your idea of revision is possible and will give you the look you want.

Sound like you have a severe capsular contracture which is a scar envelope surrounding the implant causing this pain. A capsule is normal following an implant but in 20% patients this capsule can get progressively tighter to the point that it causes pain. The treatment is releasing or removing the capsule and putting the implant back into the new released pocket and start aggressive post operative massage to help prevent capsule tightening from reoccurring.

Your breast shape is completely normal following breast feeding and pregnancy. The best option to get a shape and size proportional to your body frame and age would be a vertical breast lift with a 300cc High profile silicone implant for a perky medium C cup look. A breast augmentation alone would result in increased size but the areola would be too low - you wont like it. If you do a lift only you will be too small in size. Trust me I'm a doctor! My practice is 90% breast lifts and augments. Recovery is 1 week of soreness like breast feeding. The scar fade at about 12months to your normal scar color.

Looking at your photos, your breasts are completely natural looking and don't look fake at all. My recommendations would be to not change shape or size or profile at all. I don't like low profile implant at all- they are so wide compared to the normal breast width diameter and to short - leaving the breast looking wide and flat. Breast shape is amazing size is right on for your frame. My practice is 90% breast augmentation and breast lifts --yours are perfect.

ANSWER
I suspect with your age and your chest diameter of 34 inches that your problem is lost volume following pregnancy. This is completely normal. If this is the case, then a breast augmentation with a silicone implant, preferably a Full profile to get back some projection and improve your cleavage. If your areolas are at the very bottom of your breasts at the level of the inframammary fold then you may need a skin tightening breast lift to create a tighter skin brassiere with a breast implant for volume. If you are comfortable, posting photos would allow for a more precise recommendation.
