Help!! Had a mastopexy in 2021. Revision in 2022 because original mastopexy remained empty/slightly droopy. My surgeon's plan- which he said was going to be very successful- implant (small low profile) and galaflex to support implant and lateral falling tissue. Galaflex was placed 5 or 6 o clock up lateral curve to support. This is an absolutely horrendous result. Old incisions were not used- he cut vertical and areolar which was not discussed. Asymmetrical. Left breast incision line butchered.

You need an examination to see where the pain is specifically and if it could be related to your breast surgery. Some scar tissue may have developed around a sensory nerve, or there may be another reason. Pain doctors are good at blocking painful nerves, and I would suggest seeing one of them.
Thank you for your question regarding your high profile implant breast augmentation and for including photos.
The increase in implant size is likely responsible for your breasts now being closer together than previously.
For specific questions like this and about your recovery in general, it...
Your nipples are fine, but your breasts have bottomed out and need to be lifted. I would suggest going smaller since your tissue will not support the size you have now. Fat will not be helpful.
