3yrs after Silicone implants my left breast, which was always larger, started to feel heavy and strained. PS paid no attention to me. Breast has been feeling "looser" . I have a bit of muscle strain above the left breast, maybe do to it's weight & my weight loss. my right implant stays in place perfectly. Is this normal sagging? I'm 5"7, 100lb having lost weight recently. Could the weight loss have had an affect? Does this seem like a procedure that needs surgery to fix?

Answer: Is my breast implant loose? Has it moved? (photos) Thank you for your question.I do observe some breast asymmetry from your photos. To answer your question more precisely, I would need to know more details about the appearance of your breasts prior to surgery, immediately after surgery and compare with the current photos. Also, you would need to have an physical examination so the breast tissues and breast implants could be evaluated. Finally, it is important to know the details about the surgical technique and type of silicone breast implants used in your surgery.I would recommend you return to your surgeon for another evaluation. It is also good to seek a second opinion to discuss your concerns. The surgeon that you seek for a second opinion will need the above mentioned details to best help you.I hope this helps.

Answer: Is my breast implant loose? Has it moved? Best to see if you were asymmetric before the implants. So we could have the opportunity to compare.........
