Hi! I had a breast augmentation June 2020 (SSF 335cc, silicone, under the muscle, inframammary incision). I'm 5'6 and 118lbs. Now that the implants have settled, the incision is about 1" above the breast fold and they are definitely more full in the bottom pole. I actually like the way they look (less fullness on top) but have the implants "bottomed out"? Are my results considered "bad"?
Answer: You are dealing with a slight malposition Thank you for your question. In the pictures, you have sent, I can see that lower pole looks a little long and the fact that the incision position is now higher than the implant, means that you are dealing with slight bottoming out (inferior malposition). Judging from pre-op picture, your breasts tend to have a longer pole naturally, so your results are reflected with the original breast shape. Of course, the result would be better if the scar level is aligned with the implant borders, but I would not consider your result as necessarily very bad. Slight malposition of smooth implant is normal for people with thinly formed implant capsule, so they usually need to have an additional support from bras with under-wires which is wide enough to support your breasts.

Answer: Have my implants bottomed out? Your breast surgery result looks very nice. At first glance of the photos, the implants do look a little "bottomed out", meaning the implant is sitting mainly in the lower portion of the breast, however, when I look at your pre-op photo, I see that you do have a little bit of a high nipple with more lower pole than average. You do not have a bad result, you have a very good result.
