Last July I had a breast lift and implants done become displaced on R side. Had two more surgeries afterwards to fix displacement for it to still happen again. Since last surgery in Dec L hasn’t dropped and has capsular contracture and R is severely displaced under armpit again. I have retained a second opinion as I don’t want my surgeon going in a 4th time he had a lot to say and feels confident he can fix. I’ve lost a lot of money and time working 3 surgeries in 5 months is this malpractice ?
