Dear JennmR,
I understand your concern. However, without a proper assessment, it would be difficult to determine what went wrong. It is best that you visit your plastic surgeon for further assessment or ask for a second opinion. Only after a thorough examination, you can get proper recommendations and advice.

Photos are insufficient to make a diagnosis, but the likely treatment is a full breast lift. Go to a surgeon who does this all the time!

Nelson Castillo, MD · Answer

Thank you for sharing your question. A full detailed exam is required to know what is taking place and how best to address your issue.  Seek out more information from your surgeon or get second opinions.

Connie Hiers, MD, FACS · Answer

Although your second photo is not the best view to evaluate your breast, it appears that you need a lift. You only had an augmentation and your own tissue is sagging.  Go back to your surgeon and discuss this.

A physical exam would aid in diagnosis.  It could be caused by several different things, but I believe a partial capsulectomy would fix most of it.
