I had a breast augmentation in May, so going on 4 months ago now. I originally had concerns about my right breast appearing to not be dropping. I’ve since noticed that it appears my left breast is actually what I should be concerned about. It appears to me that it’s bottoming out. I’ve discussed this with my PS and he says they “look great” and I should “take the win!” I’m not happy with how odd they look. Looking for another opinion.
Answer: Implant malposition Wait a few more months and you'll be ready for a revision surgery. At that time, you should find another surgeon who is expert in revision breast surgery to perform the necessary capsulorrhaphy and mesh (aka internal bra) to reposition the implants into a pleasing place on your chest wall. Just tell your current surgeon you're taking the win elsewhere.

Answer: Teardrop implants Hello, thanks for your question. I am not seen prominent signs of bottoming out, it may be minor if at all. However, I think that a smaller implant or a teardrop implant may give a more natural result. I would advise you to wait for a couple of more months before a revision surgery, if by that time you're still unsatisfied with your results. Best of luck!

Answer: Implants You are bottoming out some. Do wear a good supporting underwire bra while you are awake. Perhaps it will not become worse.

Answer: Bottoming Out Without a preoperative photo, knowledge of type of implant/implant position, and a physical exam...it is quite challenging to make a solid professional opinion regarding your outcome. It appears that the nipple to breast fold distance is elongated on both breasts, significantly more noticeable on the left. There are many reasons why this could be happening. I recommend waiting a full year from the time of the initial surgery and then finding a board-eligible or board-certified plastic surgeon with adequate plastic surgery training and ideally aesthetic surgery fellowship training (accredited by The Aesthetic Society).
