Breast augmentation - am I experiencing double bubble/bottoming out? (Photo)

a double bubble, that is called an animation deformity. when implants are placed under the pec muscle this commonly occurs.

The surgeon did a great job! You have a beautiful result! There is neither a double bubble nor bottoming out. The depression that you see on the bottom is typical "animation deformity" and occurs frequently in the submuscular position (under the muscle). You only see it when you contract the Pectoralis Major, great photos by the way, it makes it very clear. The lower breast is smooth and not bottomed out in the photo of your chest at rest. This will not go away but most patients get use to it. This is certainly one of the disadvantages of going behind the muscle along with greater post op pain. The great ADVANTAGE is that there is significantly less Capsular Contracture rates (Hardening, pain and distortion of shape) and contracture is one of the most dreaded complications for the patient and the surgeon. I have placed over 8,000 implants in the last 24 years and have recorded a contracture rate of 1.3% for my Saline Series. Discuss it further with your surgeon, I'm sure he or she would be more than happy to go over it with you.
