What Fixes Breast Tissue Atrophy Caused my Implants?

September 28, 2011
Asked By:Ginger in Texas in Rio Grande City, TX

A few months ago I thought that my implants had ruptured because they seemed smaller. Now, after some research, I believe my own breast tissue is thinning. My upper chest seems very flat and the implants seem to be low. Will a breast lift fix that? What can I do?
