Breasts looking weird, any ideas why this may be happening? (Photo)

Question

I had a breast augmentation in may of 2019 and in the last few weeks, I’ve noticed my right breast looking deflated and my left full. It almost looks like the implant has a corner? I’m booking a consul with my plastic surgeon but until then can I get some insight as to what would cause it to look almost deformed?

Dear TawnsFTW,
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.

Good morning,
You didn't mention whether you have saline or silicone implants, but your photo and your description sound most like a saline implant deflation!

Nelson Castillo, MD · Answer

Thank you for sharing your question and photograph.  It appears that you have suffered a rupture or deflation of the implant.  Although not an emergency it does need to be evaluated by your surgeon for possible replacement.

Connie Hiers, MD, FACS · Answer

It appears you are deflating and you will notice the empty corners when this happens. If you are seeing a new surgeon, take your implant information with you.
