Have I bottomed out? My right breast feels really strange (Photos)

Question

My right breast feels really strange when i pick it up and i can feel the implant falling below my incision

Gary M. Horndeski, MD · Answer

From your photographs, I cannot tell if you are bottoming out or not. It does not look that bad. However, you had the anchor lift as well as augmentation. The only thing holding up your implants is the skin envelope so it is possible they can be extruding inferiorly and laterally. You may need a revision.

Your overall outcome looks good. There are some subtle differences in the symmetry. Your concerns warrant a visit to your surgeon for evaluation and if needed, discussion of possible options.

Camille Cash, MD · Answer

From your photos it does appear your one implant has shifted a bit.  You can visit with your surgeon for further evaluation.  Be sure to wear good, supportive bras, especially when active.

Connie Hiers, MD, FACS · Answer

Yes, your one implant is sitting a little lower than the opposite implant and is more easily felt. Please wear good supporting bras.

It’s difficult to tell if your implants have bottomed out.
 to get a better assessment we would need some reference to what you look like immediately after surgery.
The issue seems to be more with your left breast? 
The bottoming out of implants can be caused by a number of reasons. It is more common when large implants are chosen. 
I suggest you follow up with your provider
