Already Sagging After Breast Lift and Silicone Implants

DBoyzMomApr 26, 2009

I finally had a Breast lift and Breast augmentation this Jan. I have 2 kids, 34, 5'7", 160lbs, 38C prior to surgery. I had 550cc Mentor round, moderate profile silicone implants. I feel that they are already sagging and I am unhappy with the lack of roundness on the top and lack of cleavage, and dispoportionate nipples. I don't care if they look natural I want them to look perfect in a bathing suit. What are my options?

Chest muscle spasms are expected to occur for 3 to 4 weeks after the surgery. This is because your muscles are adjusting to the implants. This may cause a pulling and stretching feeling in your breasts. Pain and swelling should get better by week 4. Good luck with your healing process.

APS increases the risk of serious complications, particularly thrombosis. It would be best to speak with your primary care physician about whether this elective surgery would be safe for you, and if yes, also discuss your condition with your plastic surgeon for their opinion.

Due to the lower nipple placement on the right breast (left in the photo), a lift would be recommended to improve symmetry.

A vertical breast lift would most likely be the most suitable option for you since your nipples are located below your breast fold. With anything less, your implants would sit too low on your chest and you wouldn’t have any fullness in the upper portion of your breasts.
