Revision surgery for one implant that hasn't dropped after 6 months?

April 12, 2017
Asked By:Res ispa in Augusta, GA

I had a lift & saline implant 6 mnths ago. Breast are soft & move well but one dropped & the other is noticeably higher. My Doctor said that it probably won't drop on its own after this long. He suggested another surgery to fix it, which can be done under sedation & the only cost to me will be around $350 bc he stands by his work. He said I can have it done under anesthesia but the cost will be more. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Will sedation be enough pain control for this surgery?
