My Breast Implants Are Too Far Apart - Can This Be Easily Fixed?

There are several things that affect spacing between the breasts after augmentation, one of which is where the pectoral muscle attaches, but a very important factor is the diameter of the implants relative to the base diameter of the breasts. If the implant diameter is narrow, as with high profile implants, there will be more space between the breasts unless the breasts are also very narrow in diameter. If that is the case, a change to moderate profile implants may be helpful, but only someone who can see you in person can make a definitive recommendation.

Dear Miss Rose,I get this problem all of the time.  Typically, its from women who went with high profile implants.  This is a problem because while they project more, they are narrow at the base and can have widening effect on cleavage.  The second most common problem is incomplete release of the pectoralis muscle medially. Many surgeons don't take the time to make this right. Daniel Barrett, MD

Excessive #space #between the breasts is a very common reason many seek breast implant revision surgery. During the initial breast augmentation, a #pocket is created carefully to maintain certain folds on the sides and bottom of the breast. Occasionally, the space for the breast implant becomes too large on the #side of the chest or the tissue #stretches and the implants fall too much to the side. This is most easily seen when the patient is lying on her back. Other times, the space is a result of too narrow or too small of an implant for the patient's build.
It's difficult to suggest solutions here without knowledge of the #surgical #techniques applied. Nor without before and after #photographs.
Nevertheless, the best #option for #revising should be discussed during a one-on-one consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon. Deciding on additional #elective cosmetic #surgery is a personal #choice. Your procedures should always be performed by a #PlasticSurgeon who is board-certified and has a great deal of experience specializing in cosmetic #surgery. You will then greatly improve your chances of getting the result you desire, and, without the need for a revision surgery. It is suggested that you look at before and after photos of the surgeons actual patients, and read patient reviews. Gathering all of this information will help you make a well-informed decision.
