I had a breast lift with 240cc implant abd I feel like my breasts are too low abd my nipples are pointing outwards. Any help would be appreciated!
Answer: Low Breast Position Your pictures suggest the presence of low breast implants and superiorly mal-positioned nipple areola complexes following combination breast lift/breast augmentation surgery. In this particular case, the findings are subtle and relatively minor. Unfortunately, your pictures look as if they were shot in an upward direction. This photographic angle can make perfectly normal breasts look distorted. For this reason, it's hard to make a specific recommendation without pre-operative pictures, a physical examination and a more detailed understanding of your aesthetic goals.Your pictures suggest a relatively good aesthetic result with breasts that would be described as natural looking. Unfortunately, natural looking breasts don't necessarily have upper breast fullness. If this is a priority, revisional surgery to raise the height of the inframammary fold may be necessary at a later date.It's important to understand that it's still early in the post-operative course and wound healing goes on for 6 to 12 months following surgery. During this time, swelling improves, muscles relax and the inflammation associated with wound healing decreases.For these reasons, it's important to be patient and maintain good communication with your plastic surgeon. If revisional surgery is considered to raise the height of the inframammary fold, it should be delayed for at least six months. At that point, wound healing should be stable and aesthetic decisions more easily made.

Answer: Nipples to high after breast lift can be corrected This early in your recovery I think your result looks very good. I do understand that you feel your nipples are pointing too high and the too much of your breast volume is below the nipple. If this persists after 3-4 months a fairly simple revision can be done to remove excess skin beneath the nipple areola and lift the breast higher under the nipple.

Answer: Breast position Thank you for your pictures. Your result is actually pretty decent. Your breasts may be a little low but they have a mature look. I definitely were supportive bra to hold their position over your lifetime.Good luckEarl Stephenson, Jr, M.D., DDS, FACS

Answer: Are My Breasts Too Low? Thank you for asking your question and providing photographs. It seem that you are experiencing what is called "Bottoming Out". This occurs when the skin below the nipple stretches or the implant migrates below the infra mammary fold causing the nipples to turn upwards. This is a problem seen when doing mastopexy combined with an implant. There are a few techniques available that can correct this:The use of a biological mesh (such as Strattice) to function as an internal bra to help support the implantThe use of a textured implant which tends to stay in place and have less migration as compared to a smooth implantPlacement of the implant in the sub muscular / dual plane positionChange the implant to a smaller size Reinforce the infra mammary fold You should talk to your surgeon and bring up your concerns. For the time being be sure to wear a bra with adequate support so that it doesn't worsen. I hope this helps.
