Ever since I downsized my implants, we discovered that when my left breast gets pushed inward, the implant balloons out of a small spot and gives me an uncomfortable ‘pop’ feeling. When my breast relaxes, I have the same feeling as the implant falls back into place. It’s an unsettling snap/pop feeling and it happens during regular daily movement. Are there any promising options? Internal sutures or mesh? I have expressed this to my surgeon. It has been really hard for me. I can’t ignore it.

You showed no photos, so I cannot be specific. Your surgeon will examine and measure you to see if a lift is needed and what kind is best. Occasionally, a lift cannot be done because of the thin tissue behind the nipple, especially in small breasts women who chose large implants. During a lift,...
You could have the implants placed behind the muscle and your surgeon could use dermal grafts to help give more coverage. If you have any donor fat, fat grafting could also be done.
