Implant Removal - Does lowered crease get reinstated? (Photo)

June 26, 2024
Asked By:MeMeMeTime in Boon, Michigan

I had very constricted AA breasts. My creases were lowered 2.5" approximately to accomodate 425 cc silicone under the muscle. The tissue was scored around the entire breast. If I have a full capsulectomy, will the area that is currently "underboob" be sewn back to my chest wall? Or should it NOT be to give me better chances at at least having some normal "round" breasts?

To better answer this question would require more information and an actual physical examination. Based on the limited information provided, my best guess is that you would lose two or more cup sizes from the procedure.
