One breast has settled considerably lower than the other. Can this be repaired without a lift? (photo)

Asked By:skwmv in Montana

I had my augmentation just over 2 years ago (under the muscle). The right side received a mentor smooth round moderate plus profile gel implant sized 300. The left side received the same but sized 325. In the past year the right side has begun to settle considerably lower than the left - visually it appears at least an inch lower than the left side. Is there a way to repair this without a lift?
