I did a breast lift implant exchange from 415 cc to 335cc and a reverse tummy tuck tuck 19 weeks ago. My breast are not symmetrical and looks like they have bottomed out. Do I need revision surgery. I have posted before and after

Answer: Breasts Your breasts are a bit lower, but not really bottomed out. After they fully settle (8-12 months), then re-assess and if necessary, they may revise the lower breast skin to elevate the breasts and give more upper pole fullness. Best wishes. Dr. Taranow

Answer: Implant lateralization Based on the photos, the implant on the left side of the photo looks like it is sitting on a steeply outwardly angling chest wall and if that is your right side, this is quite common. That foundation predisposes your implant to side down and out by gravity. There are ways of preventing or minimizing this but in your case a revision will likely be needed to close off the pocket on the side. Your tissues are not very strong and some surgeons would advocate adding additional materials to help this not recur.
