Is my breast implant loose? Has it moved? (photos)

It is possible that your implant is 'loose', meaning the breast capsule, the space in which the implant sits, can stretch over time.  If this happens, it can be tightened through surgery.

To best assess the breasts from a frontal photograph, the arms need to both be relaxed at your side. The left hand is holding a camera. To be honest, I do not believe any accurate statements could be made based upon this one photo.if you are not satisfied with your plastic sugeon, get a copy of all your records and photos and make an appt to see another plastic surgeon.

Hard to tell without an exam. Your left breast could have bottomed out a little. Your left might have the more natural relaxation after weight loss and your right is higher because of mild capsular contracture, Show to your surgeon again and if need be get a second opinion. Good luck.

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.  Best wishes!William J.

Best to see if you were asymmetric before the implants. So we could have the opportunity to compare.........

It is very difficult to tell you whether or not you need a revision.  Best to be seen in person to be properly evaluated. Best to luck.

Unfortunately there is no way to tell you what has changed without prior photos. Your left breast is ptotic, malpositioned laterally, and shows rippling in the upper pole.  This can be improved with a revision in most cases.  You don't say how much weight you lost, but this certainly could have contributed to thinning tissue and reduced support to the implant.  See your plastic surgeon with your concerns, or obtain second opinion from another plastic surgeon in your area.  Best wishes,--Erik Hoy, M.D.
