Do I have Symmastia? (Photos)

Good morning,
I repaired two synmastia patients yesterday and this is a repair I commonly perform. I use the Original Internal Bra, my strong permanent internal suturing technique, which firmly and permanently reattaches your soft tissue to your breastbone. I first developed this technique over 20 years ago, and today it is the most common revision I perform, 5-6 times a week- it works and it lasts! Whether you explant or choose to continue with implants does not matter- the synmastia needs to be repaired either way because simply removing your implants will not reattach the tissues and they will always "float" if not repaired properly.

Your very large implants are too large for your frame and have stretched tissue so you have some symmastia. You would do much better going down in size and repairing that area if needed.

Hello,
Thank you for your enquiry. Your photos are very helpful. There is indeed synmastia. You mentioned that you always had it. If that was before your implant surgery, then it will stay after removal as well. If you noticed it following your surgery, it can improve after implant removal. This can be helped with stitches inside the breast cavity to secure the cleavage to the chestbone.
