Answer: Implants Do not go bigger. Your tissue is not supporting the weight of your current implants and will not support heavier implants. You need to go smaller and may need an internal bra of mesh for better support. The inferior pocket can be tightened and raised back up so the scars are more in the crease.

Answer: Bottomed out exchange Hello and thank you for the photos and the question. All breast augmentation procedures involve some dropping of the implant during the healing process. this is normal it's important that when the procedure is done that the pocket for the implant created properly fits the implant, and should be neither too large nor too small. Under the muscle implants are the preferred way to do this procedure however sometimes the activation of the muscle overtime creates downward pressure on the implant pushing it lower and lower. It is important to remember that after a sub muscular implant is placed that very little upper body exercises performed during the healing process. Based on your photos, you have an excellent overall shape end result from your plastic surgeon. There are different methods and techniques designed to lift the implant pocket and tighten this area to keep this scar in the crease however none of that is guaranteed and if you go to a larger implant it almost always will lead to further dropping of the implant pocket. I don't advise you do these things at the same time. If you are determined to go with a bigger implant, I would suggest you do that first, then wait a year to allow for adequate healing. At that point in time your plastic surgeon can determine how much to raise the pocket and tighten the lower pole of the soft tissues to prevent the pocket from dropping too low. Regardless, there will still be a little bit of dropping of the pocket because of gravity and the activation of your pectoralis muscle and you should be prepared for this. Your wish pics look like high profile and appear OVER the muscle, which I also don't recommend. Remember to be healthy, no smoking, and make sure any medical conditions you have are being managed by your primary care MD. Best to you.
