I had my surgery back in March 2023. I am noticing that my right implant didn't drop as much as my left one. Both breasts are soft and no pain at all.. my right side just looks a bit different. It was like this since I had surgery. What could it be??
Answer: Breast implant too high There could be several reasons why the right is higher. One is the technique: submuscular implants tend to stay high. If the pockets were made at a different level, implant placement will be different. The other is if implants are different, they shape the breasts differently. Also if your right breast is higher on your chest, then the implant will seem higher. Capsular contracture is another reason but it usually is happens months after surgery. Best is to ask your surgeon who can answer most of these questions.

Answer: Implant not dropping Thank you for your question. This can happen on occasion. Sometimes if the muscle was not completely transected it could happen. Sometimes the tissue just doesn't stretch or relax so the implant doesn't drop. This requires going back in and releasing the capsule inferiorly to get the implant in a better position. I would recommend speaking to your plastic surgeon. All the best,

Answer: One is higher Thank you for your photos and question. Have you been doing massages to the breast? I recommend you consult with your surgeon and have them instruct you on doing some gentle downward massage or possibly talk about lowering that pole on the one side to release the implant. You also want to rule out a capsular contractor.

Answer: Implants dropping There can be several reasons for the implant not dropping. It can range from the way the implants were placed to capsular contracture. It is best to visit with your surgeon for an evaluation to determine the appropriate treatment based on the underlying cause.
