The technique I recommend is explantation and lift using The Bellesoma Method.  The implants are removed your breast tissue is reshaped creating upper pole fullness, elevated higher on the chest wall and more medial to increase your cleavage.  Vertical scars are avoided, nipple sensation (in 95%) and the ability to breast feed are maintained if not injured during your previous surgery.  Later, fat transfers can be performed if additional volume is desired.

Best Wishes,

Gary Horndeski, M.D.

Dear hatemylife,
breast revision surgery is the most difficult plastic surgery procedure performed. Botched breast surgery alters normal tissue planes and laxity, the ability of breasts to heal properly, and leaves scar tissue that dramatically affects the level of difficulty of the corrective surgery.Many patients come in to correct poor outcomes from their initial surgeries. The most common problems are due to implant malposition, bottoming out of the implant, poor scarring, and incorrect implant size.While the type of revision required will depend on the result of the previous surgery and the desired result of the patient, some revisions involve extensive pocket repair that may or may not need specialized external bras.If you are considering breast surgery revision, you should speak with a board certified plastic surgeon and have yourself properly assessed. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations. Also, you have to make sure that your surgeon understands your breast augmentation goals.

You appear to need a lift. Your own breast tissue is sagging and this can be lifted back into position.

Hello dear, 
I'm so sorry to hear your story, looks like you went through a lot. It must be very exhausting both physically and mentally. But please don't fall into despair! I do understand the frustration but there is always a way to solve things as long as you don't give up. 
Your case seems like a breast lift case along with the implant change. This would allow us to re-shape the breasts according to your wishes and I can place the implants under the muscle. In this way, they stay stable and don't move around much. Please kindly keep in mind that this will be a revision surgery so you should not be waiting for an average price since revision surgeries take more time, more effort, and more professionalism. You will get your life back, don't worry! 
Be safe, be happy
