I had a breast aug in tSeptember of 2024, 235cc left breast, 255cc in right breast (Sientra gummy bear). I am so unhappy with the results. My nippples are so low with the lower pole feeling empty and the upper pole is really firm and full. I wanted something very natural. Can this be fixed? Including pics of pre-op, 10 weeks post op and current.

Answer: Low nipples and empty lower pole Dear Gregarious71494, I understand your concern. However, without a proper assessment, it would be difficult to determine what is 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.

Answer: Lift recommended Your nipples were located at or even slightly below your breast fold before surgery, so the implants are making that issue more obvious. A lift would be recommended.

Answer: Low nipples and empty lower pole. Can this be fixed Yes!! Your areolas are low. But the good news is your implants are not that thigh. I can see from your pre-op photos that you needed a breast lift with implants to begin with. This means that lowering the implants will not correct areola positioning….. so the is no need for pocket revision. I recommend a donut lift. This alone should be enough to lift the areola and tighten the skin on the lower pole. Best of luck, Dr. Miguel Mota
