Hi there, I got my implants over 9 months ago and feel like they are still sitting a bit higher than I would like. I am not 100% happy with my profile with them but am ok with them head on. Let me know your thoughts. Thank you!

Answer: Sitting too high Hello, thank you for your question. Its difficult to say whether or not there is capsular contracture based on the photo usually this can occur and prevent the implant from dropping. if you like this look and it is not causing any pain then there is nothing wrong with where they are sitting and often times patients wished they stayed up high and perky. If they are an issue speak to your plastic surgeon for a full assessment. Feel free to check out website for more information.

Answer: Implants Your implants are not sitting too high, but are a bit large for your frame so you have upper fullness. If you want something more natural, go smaller.

Answer: Breast Implants Sitting High Thank you for your question about recovery from a breast augmentation and for including photos. For specific questions like this and about your recovery in general, it is best to speak directly with your doctor or doctor’s representative – such as his or her nurse, or the physician on call for the practice. You will likely get many differing opinions from members of the RealSelf Community, but they have not personally seen or examined you. Nobody should know you or your unique set of circumstances better than your doctor. If you feel you are not being listened to or you are doubting your doctor’s recommendations, then it is certainly within your rights to seek a second opinion and get the advice from another board certified physician. This should be done through an in-person consultation with a thorough evaluation, including a review of your history, review of all prior treatment and with a physical examination. Obviously, if you think that you are having a medical emergency or other serious problem, you should call 911 and/or go to your nearest emergency room. Best Wishes.

Answer: Concern with implant position. Your overall breast implant position looks good. There is a slight amount of superior pole fullness however this gradually will decrease overtime from gravity and tissue relaxation. You will need to consider the risk/benefit ratio of having a revision to slightly lower your implants. If they ended up anywhere except exactly where you wanted them, you may be having another operation to correct that. Best wishes.
