Hello. I had a Breast Augmentation 5 years ago they are 300cc mentor round saline implants that are under the muscle. They are very far apart and flatten out when my arms flex.
I would like to get them redone so I can have some cleavage. Is this possible because my areolas are very far apart naturally and I have a very round ribcage. I want a wider closer together breast without have a lot of projection Is this all posible?

Answer: Breast Revision Surgery You can definitely have an improvement. However, one needs to be careful not to over do it as you have mentioned is that your nipples are far apart. The key is to center the implant just under your nipple and areola complex. So yes the implants need to be moved over a bit by a capsulorrhaphy and center under your NAC, but they will still be some what far, closer than they are now and better looking but still you will not have a lot of cleavage, and that is secondary to your anatomy. Hope that helps.

Answer: Is improvement in my Breast Implant Result possible?
Hi there-
There is no question that your result could be improved. I would visit with a few Board Certified Plastic Surgeons, discuss your goals, review photos of their work in situations like yours, listen to their plan to correct this problem for you, and decide based on your understanding of their ability to achieve your goals.
I am not a believer that your nipple position would limit your outcome, but do agree with Dr. Rand that form the photo you posted it looks like you need significant pocket corrections to be made, with a broader base diameter implant.
