I received a breast aug on 8/27/2021. I had tubular breasts. My doctor was supposed to fix this issue, but what it looks like to me and everyone's I've shown is that he just popped the implants in and called it a day. He showed no concern for the way my boobs look in our post op appointments although they are obviously messed up. I need other doctors opinions on whether or not this is malpractice due to him not doing the correct procedure that I needed to fix my tubular breasts.

Answer: Breast lift Hi, thank you for sharing your question. I'm sorry you went through this experience. Your pre-op photos reveal a mild tuberous deformity, which could have been corrected during your surgery. I am not certain that the proper implants were selected for your breasts. Based on your current photos, you should be able to correct this appearance with a lift and maybe an exchange of implants for those that match your anatomy. An in-person evaluation will be needed to devise the proper plan. I hope this helps.

Answer: Unhappy with breasts I'm sorry to hear of your result with your breast surgery which I agree is not good. Based on your preop photos a lift is needed to help reshape the breasts in addition to the implants. If you are not able to come to an agreement with your current surgeon I encourage you to visit with another board certified plastic surgeon near you for a consultation to discuss your options. More information is needed with regard to signed documentation to determine if there is malpractice. A lawyer may be able to shed more light on the topic.

Answer: You had mostly ptotic (sagging) breasts You needed a breast lift from the start. The fix was never just implants. You'll need to go to a breast surgery specialist to perform the lift.
