left breast sits higher up at the top, my cleavage and my fold, the nipple sits lower. My right breast has a high nipple and lower cleavage and crease than my left. I think this is how I was before surgury but because of breast sagging it wasnt noticed. I cant live with having higher cleavage pop out of my shirt. Will lowering my pocket on the left help raise my nipple to be more symmeteical with the other side as well as my my cleavage symmeteical? Will I get a double bubble?
Answer: Revision surgery Dear Faith2fly, breast revision surgery is the most difficult plastic surgery procedure performed. Botched breast surgery alters normal tissue planes and laxity, the ability of breasts to heal properly, and leaves scar tissue that dramatically affects the level of difficulty of the corrective surgery.Many patients come in to correct poor outcomes from their initial surgeries. The most common problems are due to implant malposition, bottoming out of the implant, poor scarring, and incorrect implant size.While the type of revision required will depend on the result of the previous surgery and the desired result of the patient, some revisions involve extensive pocket repair that may or may not need specialized external bras.If you are considering breast surgery revision, you should speak with a board certified plastic surgeon and have yourself properly assessed. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations. Also, you have to make sure that your surgeon understands your breast augmentation goals.

Answer: Fix the one that's too low You don't want to drop the one that is in perfect position (incision in the crease). You want to raise the one that is too low (incision on the inferior pole of breast). If you don't like your bubbly upper poles because they are too high, then get smaller or lower profile implants, or both.

Answer: Breast revision Thank you for your question. A large portion of my practice is dedicated to breast revision surgery. In your case, you are very straightforward and easy fix. You have to determine whether you want to raise the bottom of the right breast-internal bra/capsulorrhaphy or lower the left breast inferior pole-capsulotomy. Either solution will work for you. Best wishes to you.
