So, I got my implants 4 years ago, my son is now 6 months old. They are 425cc silicone, under the muscle. Pregnancy was hard on them and now the shape is horrible and they are lopsided. Will a different size and shaped implant help restore them? During Pregnancy I Think the right implant moved out of the pocket.
Answer: Breast changes after pregnancy Hello,It is difficult to see what lopsided differences you are referring to with these photos. I recommend that you meet with your Plastic Surgeon in person and have them examine you as well as compare pre op photos. All the best

Answer: Breast Changes after Pregnancy Thank you for your question and photos. Pregnancy can cause unpredictable changes to your breasts. Without seeing previous photos or performing a physical exam it is difficult to tell you exactly what is going on. Your current implants will not have changed size, however, it is possible as you stated that the pocket may have changed. The overlying breast tissue may also have changed, with one now being larger than the other. I would recommend you see a board certified plastic surgeon to determine what options would be best for you to restore your breast symmetry. Best of luck, Dr. Kludt

Answer: Pregnancy and breastfeeding often alter the size and/or shape of augmented breasts It is very common for augmented breasts to appear different after pregnancy and breastfeeding, and this may have to do with either the implant or the breast tissue itself. It is very difficult to tell exactly what is going on with your breasts from these images, therefore, it will be very difficult to make any good suggestions. This is something that really needs to be evaluated in person by an experienced board certified plastic surgeon. There may be a need to change or reposition implants, or simply to adjust the capsule, but this will all have to be determined by a personal consultation. Good luck.

Answer: Breast implants after pregnancy Breasts will definitely change after pregnancy. The degree of change is dependent on multiple factors including weight gain, breast feeding and genetics. If you are unhappy with your breasts and if you have completely stopped breast feeding get an evaluation by a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss options. Good Luck!

Answer: Changes to your breasts following pregnancy are common but I have trouble appreciating just what your concerns are from your photos. Its best to see your surgeon or another board certified plastic surgeon for an evaluation and exam and to get options for you from which you can choose. Breast feeding should be stopped for 3 months if going through an IMF approach and 6 months if going through the nipple.
