Jan 2005: 34c implants placed, no complications Jan 2018: left implant replacement due to deflation, no complications Jan 2022: Right breast revision due to sagging/loss of elasticity (implant was still intact). A dissolvable mesh was placed to strengthen skin. No lift was done. October 2023: right breast starting to sag again, left breast seems fuller / higher than right. Question: do I need a breast lift??? I’m 37 years old, 5ft3in 111 lbs
