What causes your breast implants to bottom out?

Bottoming out is subjective. In certain cases the breast tissue is fuller on the bottom of the breast than it is on the top. Some patients like bottom fullness, and others do not. Different factors that can contribute to breast implants bottoming out would be over-dissection, loose skin, or extremely large implants. It is recommended to visit a qualified breast specialist to assess your situation, and provide a treatment plan to revise the issue. It is important to do your research to make sure the physician is experienced and qualified and is able to provide before and after photos to showcase their work.

Hello, bottoming out can happen due to the weight of the implants gradually stretching out the ligaments that normally create the crease under the breasts (inframammary fold). It can also happen during surgery if the ligaments are dissected excessively.

Hello,If the breast crease/fold underneath the breast mound is compromised for any reason, the implant could be pushed past this point and sit lower on the chest than intended. This can create the look of a "double bubble". Be sure to choose a board certified Plastic Surgeon who uses careful technique and can explain to you what the surgical plan is for you and risks/considerations. Choosing implants which are a reasonable size for your tissues and avoiding over-dissection of the creases during surgery will help reduce these risks.All the best
