What is wrong with my boobs after surgery and can this be fixed? (Photo)

Vivid496771Jul 8, 2022
I am nearing 2 years post op from getting a breast augmentation. One of the reasons I got the surgery was because of the dramatic difference in size. My surgeon put 300 cc in my “larger” breast and 320 cc in the smaller one. I expected an inframammary fold to form under my smaller breast but now it just looks like the implant has fallen towards my stomach. I don’t know how else to describe this and can’t find any information online about what I’m experiencing, I am wondering if this can be fixed
