Answer: I'm having horrible pain. My implants have bottomed out. How long will a rippled implant last? I'm very sorry to hear of your discomfort. Rippling of saline implants is a not uncommon problem and there is no easy way to correct rippling.Bottoming out is a significant problem and may be the source of your discomfort. Bottoming out can be corrected with a revision of the breast implant pocket and support of the implant with acellular dermal matrix. Please consult a board certified plastic surgeon who is experienced in breast implant revision. You might consider silicon gel implants for replacement as they are less likely to cause rippling.

Answer: Bottomed out implants Thank you for your question.Implants that have bottomed out can be a frustrating dilemma. Nonetheless, it is a situation that can be corrected. Be sure to see a board certified/eligible plastic surgeon to help guide you through the treatment plan. Some surgeons prefer to use an acellular dermal matrix (ADM) to help support the inframammary fold when re-positioning implants. If the capsule is in good condition, it can also be used to help raise the lower aspect of the breast pocket.Rippling is usually due to either an under-filled saline implant or a minimal amount of tissue over the implant.I hope this helps.- Dr. Bryson G. Richards, MD

Saline implants are heavier than silicone gels for a given volume, so you might want to consider switching. Saline implants are also more prone to rippling.It is possible the pain is caused by the nerves as they are stretched by the weight of the bottomed out implant. It's possible to pain could be improved by repositioning the implants.
