Can a Lowered Inframammary Fold Be Corrected?

vophsi12
My doctor and I agreed to lower my inframammary fold due to some slight tubular deformity and ptosis. There are some problems with the outcome and its now been 6 months since surgery. First, my original crease cuts across the implant on both breast creating a double bubble effect. Second, my implants seem to have settled too low and one has even slid under the incision and the edge sits low on my rib cage. Third, because of where my implants have settled, I have no fold and and scar is visible.
