Breast implant revision to raise IMF - are my expectations too high? (Photos)

Thank you for your question and for submitting your photos. I am glad to hear you are happy with your decision to undergo plastic surgery; something all plastic surgeons are happy to hear from patients. Your left implant is sitting lower than your right implant. One implant slipping more inferiorly is something that can happens; the correction is fairly strait forward by reconstructing the infra-mammary fold from inside the pocket. If your plastic surgeon has offered to do a revision then you can be confident that there will be an improvement. If you are happy with the results now, I am sure you will be ecstatic after. Hope this helps.

Dear S11253,
breast revision surgery is the most difficult plastic surgery procedure performed. Botched breast surgery alters normal tissue planes and laxity, the ability of breasts to heal properly, and leaves scar tissue that dramatically affects the level of difficulty of the corrective surgery.Many patients come in to correct poor outcomes from their initial surgeries. The most common problems are due to implant malposition, bottoming out of the implant, poor scarring, and incorrect implant size.While the type of revision required will depend on the result of the previous surgery and the desired result of the patient, some revisions involve extensive pocket repair that may or may not need specialized external bras.If you are considering breast surgery revision, you should speak with a board certified plastic surgeon and have yourself properly assessed. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations. Also, you have to make sure that your surgeon understands your breast augmentation goals.

If it bothers you when you are not wearing a bra, then have it fixed. In a bra, the implant should be well supported to avoid further sagging.
