I had the uplift and 325cc under muscle high profile round implants 8 months ago. I asked for full round fake looking breasts. 8 months on the seem low hanging, droopy and do not look anything like what I was expecting. I carnt wear a top without a bra as they don’t look right. The top of the breast seems quite flat and when I lie down the droop towards my armpits. Can anything be done to get what I was expecting or is this what I’m stuck with?
Answer: Breasts With a full lift in women whose breasts sit low on the chest naturally, you can only get so much lift. The round fake look is not an option for your anatomy. However, the inferior incision can be raised by taking out some of the lower sagging tissue which will help reposition your breasts a little higher. Going with larger implants may make the sagging more noticeable.

Answer: Revision breast augmentation Hello and thank you for your question. From your description, it sounds like your implants are sitting low and have stretched the lateral pocket allowing the implants to fall toward your armpit. A detailed exam with a plastic surgeon who has experience in revision breast augmentation procedures will help determine the correct course of action. Frequently, results can be improved with careful implant selection and a new implant pocket.

Answer: Mini lift with implants placed higher At this time, you will need a repeat breast mastopexy using a mini lift. Using a circumareola incision, your breast tissue is reshaped, elevated higher on the chest wall and more medial to increase your cleavage. At the same time, the implants can be placed higher. You will probably need plication of the pockets inferior and laterally to create more upper pole fullness. Best Wishes, Gary Horndeski, M.D.

Answer: Surgery results Dear Cheerful649348, I understand your concern. However, without a proper assessment, it would be difficult to determine what went wrong. It is best that you visit your plastic surgeon for further assessment or ask for a second opinion. Only after a thorough examination, you can get proper recommendations and advice.

Answer: Breast implants in 2020, implant sits lower and more to the center. Is there really nothing wrong with my breast? Appears as acceptable lift with smaller implant results. But you can exchange implants to 600-700 cc to try to gain upper pole fullness as first step. Fees in the $8,000 ranges.
