Can I get breast implants without a lift? (photos)

Thank you for your questions and pictures! It does look like your breast implants are low on your chest wall. You may benefit from some internal sutures to push the implant up on your chest wall. I would consult with your original surgeon and express your concerns with him or her. Best of luck!
