Are my nipples too high, or are my breasts too low? (Photos)

You have pseudoptosis, or bottoming out of your implants. This comes from the weight of the implant stretching out the lower breast and results in a seemingly "high" nipple, low implant, and loss of upper fullness of the breast. the fix for this involves re positioning the implants and some maneuver to help prevent it from happening again.  Get a few opinions, as this is one of the more challenging problems in plastic surgery.

Hello and thank you for your question. Your photos are very helpful. After reviewing your images you have what is known as pseudo-– ptosis. This can occur after a prior breast augmentation or a breast augmentation with a breast lift. Based on your images and description, you have a history of a breast lift with augmentation which increases the chance of the implants drifting downward and stretching the lower pole of the breast skin. The only way to truly correct this condition would be to perform a revision breast lift with or without changing the breast implants. This would improve the position of the implants on the chest and place the nipples on the most projecting portion of the breast were they belong. I would be happy to see you in consultation in Miami.Alexander Zuriarrain, MD
