I got silicone implants done in Miami in May 2021. I had notice they were a little off right away after I got them, the office just reassured me that the muscles were really tight & should settle. It's been almost 3 years now since I got them & this is what they look like. I spent $$$$ to feel more confident, my confidence is falling fast because of how they look. It makes me feel so self conscious cause you can alway see the indent, plus I'm a dancer so I always have my top off! What can I do?

Answer: Breast augmentation outcome To make an assessment on the outcome of a plastic surgery procedure we generally need to see a complete set of proper before and after pictures. If you don’t have before and after pictures, then contact your surgeon and ask them to forward the pictures they took. There are three variables to determine the outcome of breast augmentation surgery. The first is the patient’s candidacy for the procedure in the first place. Not everybody is an ideal candidate for breast, implant, augmentation, and variables, such as the position of the breast on the chest wall, and possible divergence need to be taken into consideration. Likewise individuals who have ptosis need to take this into consideration. The second variable is the choice of implants. The third variable is the placement of the implant in the correct anatomic location. Your implants look like they were correctly placed in the center of the breast. There is slight evidence of breast ptosis with a breast, beginning to hang off the implants. I suggest having a few in person, consultations with plastic surgeons in your community for follow up with your original provider. Best, Mats Hagstrom, MD
