Do I need a breast lift on my left side or do you think new implant will help with nipple position? (Photo)

Currently have 330c saline implants. Wanting to switch to gummy bear implants but have noticed my one nipple is a little lower than my other. Do you think I need breast lift on one side or will new implant help re perk that breast?
