I desire high profile round not tear drop. 14 yrs ago, I had a breast reduction and a lift ( anchor incisions ) then 10 years ago, I had silicone implants placed (286 cc's each ) . Then had a child, lost and gained weight several times. The appearance of the breasts are horrible right now as you can see the nipples are not placed correctly anymore. One is too high as you can see in the picture of the right one and shows in everything that I wear. Also discoloration from nipples down ( brown lines ) help ! Suggestions!

Answer: Breast implant revision A high nipple areolar complex is a difficult problem to correct. Based on the photographs provided, you have excess breast volume below both of your nipple areolar complexes. This may represent a combination of your own breast tissue (what we call glandular ptosis) and bottoming out of the implant. This can be addressed by a removing the excess breast tissue and repositioning the implant more superiorly, possibly with an absorbable mesh to provide additional support. This will help with repositioning the nipple areolar complexes by providing more superior volume on both sides. However, even with repositioning the implant unfortunately the right nipple areolar complex may need to be moved inferiorly, which will leave a visible vertical scar above it. The brown discoloration along the vertical scar may represent residual areola pigment from your prior breast reduction. This would be removed with the revision. Your case is very complex so make sure you see a plastic surgeon certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery who specializes in breast revision surgery.

Answer: Nipples too high after breast reduction and lift This is a challenging problem that probably requires 2 steps to correct. First then distance between the areola and infra mammary fold needs to be shortened a great deal which means removing the implant temporarily and removing some breast tissue inferiority. That will lower the nipple significantly and the.lm as a second step an implant of the desired size can be placed. A smaller contraction can probably be done as a one step operation but that Woukd depend on an in person examination.
