Why Are my Nipples So Low? (photo)

You have choices. Many women would be extremely happy with the way you look and not change a thing. The implants will still get a tad lower with time. If you like the position of your implants, you could do a peri-areolar lift (around the nipple). This lift would place the nipple more centrally on the breast but would result in an incision all of the way around the nipple. Conversely, you could lower the space which the implant is in. In this way the nipple would be more centered on the implant, but you would have less fullness on the top which you may not want to loose. I suggest meeting with your surgeon to discuss these pros and cons.

It appears that your nipples are positioned just below the horizontal midline plane of the implant. If you like where the implants are positioned (fullness of the upper pole then the only way to further improve the implant/nipple relationship is to elevate the nipple/areola. This can be achieved with a donut or Benelli breast lift. The trade off is a scar around the border of the areola. If you want to keep the nipple exactly the same position then you have to lower the implant to make the nipple appear more centered on the implant. When you lower the implant then you may lose some of the fullness of the upper pole that you come to like. Final option is to stay the way you are currently and enjoy the newly enhanced breasts. This is a good discussion to have with your plastic surgeon during your next follow up visit.
