So I had a breast lift in 2020 and they were nice but just too large for me and I chose a surgeon in Tampa to give me a revision/lift and that was my 4th breast augmentation. As soon as I came out of surgery I was was in more pain on my right side than I have ever been in and the pain actually never stopped. It has been a year and I have complained and sent pictures but the surgeon is adamant that the breast is lower because that is my anatomy although it has never looked this way before.

A mammogram and ultrasound are about 90% accurate in detecting a leak. If the radiologist wants an MRI, it then can be ordered. It will be about 95% accurate. Only God is 100% accurate. With surgery, of course, the implant can be examined to see if it is ruptured.
I do agree with going smaller since these are a bit large. Your lateral pocket can be tightened internally so that the pocket is smaller and the implants do not fall so much to the sides. A lift should be able to be done at the same.
Hi, sorry to hear you are not satisfied with your original surgery. There are a few options here - the volume difference is relatively straightforward to correct with a larger implant on the right side. The asymmetry in nipple height could be addressed by adjusting the skin envelope on each side...
