Breast Augmentation Revision w/ or w/out breast lift - would I be a good candidate? (photos)

January 13, 2022
Asked By:Beautiful490340 in Atlanta, Georgia

I had 300 cc saline implants done in 2004. I have animation deformity pretty badly and my left breast has dropped. (pictures make it look a lot worse than it is) In addition there is a gap between my breast bone and the implant and I have pain in my left ribs due to the implant sitting on them. My PS suggested that we move the pocket to subglandular and go up in size (I don't want a full lift - he tried) Would I be a good candidate for a donut lift or will a pocket/implant exchange fix it?
