6mth post breast lift with 275cc high profile implant - are they bottoming out? (photo)

Your breasts don't look bottomed out to me. The skin and muscle naturally will stretch a little because of the implant. Also it's is typical that the implants start out a little high and drop slightly after a few months. You do not have a problem here.

Hello @jayde1991 thank you for your question. I understand your concern, however without a proper assessment an expert opinion is not possible. The best course of action is to consult one or several board certified plastic surgeon for more information and options tailored specifically to your needs. Best wishes! Alan Gonzalez MD FACS

Dear jayde1991,
bottoming out occurs when the implant falls below the current breast crease or inframammary line. It's more likely to happen with inframammary incisions, which is why I try not to use the inframammary approach to any breast surgery.
Bottoming out can also occur if an implant is too large for the breast pocket. That is why it is important to choose an implant size that's correct for your body. I perform numerous measurements in the office to determine optimal implant size for my patient's bodies.
If you are concerned, please check it with your plastic surgeon for reassurance and to further discuss your options and possibility of revision.

You only posted one view of your breasts, so I cannot be certain. I would suggest returning to your surgeon and discussing your concerns.

You do not appear to be bottoming out but rather just descended. Your results are acceptable, but it would have been nice to see pre-op and even early post op photos to assess.

Hello and thanks for your question. Based on your information and your pictures, the best treatment plan that I can offer you will be breast implant revision and slight uplift operation. In the pictures that you sent it can be clearly seen that you need to have bigger implants to get rid of the saggy look you have at the moment.

Bottoming out occurs when the implant goes south below the crease under the breast. From the photo that doesn't seem to be happening. You might need more tightening of the lower pole with a lift revision. Seek some in person thoughts with your surgeon.
