Should I Have my Breast Implants Moved Closer to Midline? (photo)

In this case, do not move your implants toward the midline. Although it is possible to move an implant to the left or right by suturing the implant pocket, implants should be centered underneath the breast mound and nipple-areolar complex. If you move your current implants too far medially in order to achieve more cleavage, you will be creating implant malposition. You may be a candidate for a wider based implant to help fill in the medial breast tissue.

Hi, for your guidance, over time, the implants may shift in any direction causing the need for a revision. In rare cases, a “bottoming out” effect occurs, in which, the implant sinks too low in the chest wall causing the nipple to appear to point upward or be position too high. Generally speaking, if the implant is larger (i.e. heavier) and if a bra is not used regularly during wake time hours there is a greater change toward displacement.Treatment will generally require closing the space with a procedure called a capsulorrhaphy. In this case, the capsule is closed off internally much as we do when we are trying to raise the breast fold. The capsule is closed with sutures and at times Acellular Dermis Matrix (ADM) or other soft tissue substitutes would be used to further support this correction. Best of luck! #RealSelf100

It would be nice to see a before photo because you may naturally have wide set breasts. If this is the case then moving them closer may not be possible. If the your breasts were closer and now have migrated outward then surgery would be helpful.
