I noticed one of my scars moved and am worried I am bottoming out? I got my surgery 3 years ago and this scar was a little off in the beginning but seems to be worse now.

Answer: Very Slightly The implant does seem to be very slightly bottoming out on the left side. While this process tends to be very slow, it can worsen over time. Because of this, I would recommend seeking a consultation for a lower pole revision sooner rather than later to ensure your skin and subcutaneous tissue does not stretch any further.

Answer: Bottoming out Scar migration after breast augmentation is common for medium to large implants. Scar migration represents stretching of the skin. Bottoming out is when the implant drops below the breast footprint. Your implants look well positioned relative to your breast so I would not worry about it. If you are concerned, measure the distance from your breast crease to your scar and the distance from your scar to your nipple. Recored the distances and remeasure in a year to compare. Otherwise, wear high impact sports bras when working out and enjoy your excellent result.
