Implant displacement - is the left side bottoming out? (Photos)

Dear Mineiro,

I understand your concern. However, without a proper assessment, it would be difficult to determine what is 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.

Dear Mineiro,
Thanks for posting your before and after pictures. It would have been helpful to see your side view of the after pictures. From observing your pictures I do not see bottoming out, but rather capsule contracture of the left breast, (wider left cleavage) which coincide with your symptoms of pain. As far as the swelling, if you look at the before picture, you can see that the left breast is noticeably bigger than the right one, which gave you the impression of swelling, but it is just size asymmetry. The solution to your concerns is left breast capsulotomy (scar release) which will soften the breast, reduce, or even remove the pain and improve on your cleavage.
Always consult with experienced board certified plastic surgeons who operate in accredited surgery center for your safety. Most important, check the before and after pictures of redo breasts augmentation in the photo gallery to make sure that they are numerous, consistent and attractive with nice cleavage, nice projection, symmetrical and natural looking.
Best of luck,

Yes, you have some mild bottoming out of the lower breast. do wear underwire bras for now. If this bothers you, go visit with your plastic surgeon.
