I had a revision for my first breast augmentation done about 10 months ago. It was to correct my implants that were too low and too close together. I started with nothing (couldn't even fill an AA cup). Then I had 425cc mod plus put in the first surgery, and 375cc high profile for the revision. I feel that my implants are still slightly low, but my big concern is the permanent tenting or symmastia. I do not want another revision. What would happen if I had to explant?

Answer: Breast Implant Removal for Symmastia Thank you for your question and picturesIt appears that the symmastia is mild. This may or may not get worse. You have large implants for your body frame. Yes, implant removal will solve the tenting problem. Also, going with a smaller implant and changing pocket location might be helpful. To be sure, see two or more board-certified plastic surgeons in your area for a full and complete evaluation to make sure you are a good candidate and that it is safe for you to have surgery. I hope this helps.

Answer: Symmastia Your symmastia or closeness appears mild, however your implants are large for your frame. If you are content, leave them alone. If not, consider reducing the size of your implants. This will also decrease the appearance of the symmastia. I would suggest discussing this with your plastic surgeon.
