I had a breast lift 5 months ago and now I am left with those very weird shaped breasts with side boobs that wasn’t there before. What procedure can be done to fix this problem? Help!

Answer: Which procedure would help correct the appearance of side boob after a breast lift? Side boob following breast lift surgery may be due to a couple of factors. It may be due to insufficient skin tightening on that part of the breast with possible stretching of the skin as one heals. By the photos, it appears that this is mostly fat in the lower armpit area that was not addressed at the time of surgery. Often this is treated with liposuction. In my practice, I often incorporate liposuction with a breast lift surgery as part of the procedure. It seems to make sense to me that if one is lifting the breast to make it look nicer, one should address this. Obviously it takes more time and effort in the operating room, this is built into the price of breast lift surgery in my office but can vary with other offices. Best bet is to discuss this with your surgeon. This may be easily corrected with liposuction under local anesthesia.

Answer: Breast lift Thank you for your question. You have some contour irregularity on your lateral breast. It appears that your nipple to IMF distance is elongated as well. If the appearance of your breast does not improve after six months postop then you can consider a revision. The contour can likely be improved with liposuction only, but under rare circumstances may require re-opening up the breast if the underlying problem Is fat necrosis or scar tissue. Good luck.
