Question

I’m 15 months post op my right boob is still higher no pain it’s soft but it’s bothering me a lot what should I do please help ??

Ronald J. Edelson, MD · Answer

If the implant hasn’t dropped by now it probably won’t. A minor surgical revision can drop the implant. The other options is to use a strap above the breasts to push it down. Your surgeon probably has these or you may have tried it already.

At this time you are seeing your final look.  Visit with your surgeon to rule out capsular contracture, which could lead to an asymmetrical look.  If no capsular contracture is present you may need surgical intervention to correct your result.

By this time, your breasts should have “dropped and fluffed”. You may want to consider seeing your surgeon for an assessment. Corrective surgery may be necessary.

Brian K. Reedy, MD · Answer

Thanks for your question! I would suggest a visit with the surgeon who did your surgery to see what options you may have. Some subtle asymmetries can exist before a surgery as well but go unnoticed. An in-person appointment would be my best advice. Good luck!

Dear nouhaila,
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.
