I had breast augmentation surgery 9 months ago ,and, while I am happy with the size, my nipples are still a bit low. My surgeon said he was going to lower my creases during my procedure, but I'm not sure if it was actually done. I have included photos and I'm wondering if this is the expected result . Would there be any procedure possible to make them higher? If so, would it be worth it to try to fix them or are my results considered acceptable? I have 425cc HP implants under the muscle.

Answer: Nipples are low or implants are high
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.

Answer: Nipples
You have a nice result. The fullness on the top is a reflection of the style of implant that was used. The high profile implants have this kind of look.
