Well defined low pole and IMF after surgery

Question

"I am planning a Breast revision. Currently I have 350cc mentor moderate plus texture implants. I got the surgery 10 years ago. The breasts I want are well defined lower pole or the crease aka IMF. Of course not saggy. My skin is stretched from my first surgery. Will I be able to achieve the look since it will be my second? Is it for someone who has more than A cup of natural breasts? Is there any technique to achieve that? Would full profile or extra full profile help to achieve the look

Unfortunately, you have not provided photographs or told us your bra size. However, there is a breast lift technique I recommend called The Bellesoma Method. This will reshape your breast tissue creating upper pole fullness without implants, elevate them higher on the chest wall and more medial to increase your cleavage. Vertical scars are avoided, nipple sensation (in 95%) and the ability to breast feed are maintained if not injured during your previous surgery. This will also define a new inframammary fold and defined lower pole.

It's difficult to determine if your desired results are realistic without photos or an examination.  I encourage you to visit with a few board certified plastic surgeons near you for consultations to listen to varying opinions.  If your skin has stretched from your initial surgery a lift may be recommended.

You did not submit photos of what you look like now and what you would like to have.  However, your inferior pocket can be raised or dropped, or the lateral pocket can be tightened if needed.  The profile needed is based on your measurements and the volume you want. Please discuss all your concerns with your surgeon.

To make an assessment on the outcome of a plastic surgery procedure we generally need to see a complete set of proper before and after pictures. At a minimum we need to see pictures of what your breast look like currently.
Without including pictures, we can’t make an assessment and without an assessment, we can’t really give you any useful information
From what you describe it sounds like you may have implants that have bottomed out.
If that’s the case, then be aware that treating that condition is complex, difficult, and not always straightforward.
Revision surgery can be much more complicated and difficult and primary augmentation.
Depends on what is needed and the patient’s candidacy for surgery.If you haven’t selected a provider, I suggest scheduling multiple in person, consultations with local plastic surgeons, who have extensive experience with breast implant revision surgery.
Consider re-posting including picturesBest,
