I have had my breast implants for nearly 9 years, I had Mentor implants 375cc in the left and 400cc in the right under the muscle. About 2 years after the procedure the implants started to sag and I have been left with results I am not happy with. Is this what they call the waterfall effect? I would like to get a smaller implant and an uplift but I’m not sure if I’d have the same result.

Answer: Explant with Bellesoma Method A waterfall effect is when the implants stay high and the breast tissue falls off the implant. At this time, I recommend explantation and lift using The Bellesoma Method. The implants are removed, your breast tissue is reshaped creating upper pole fullness, elevated 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. Later, fat transfers can be performed if additional volume is desired. Best Wishes, Gary Horndeski, M.D.

Answer: Breasts Just based on your one photo, your breast tissue is probably sagging and not your implants. You could go smaller, have the lateral pockets tightened and do a lift for good results.
