Hello . I had breast implants done 5 month ago. My doctor cut one breast pocket upper another lower. Breast looked good after boob job but then all sudden they started to look uneven .What are my options is ?Is it possible to fix my breasts and to make them to look even?They are very soft now and they already drop in the pockets. Thank you very much.
Answer: Opening the Pocket From your photos it looks as if your surgeon placed your incisions in the correct spot. It is just that one implant has settled lower than the other. With that being said, schedule an appointment with your surgeon and he or she will be able to numb the local area, open your incision and open that pocket allowing your implant to fall exactly where it needs to be. I wish you the best of luck and I hope you have found this information helpful to you!

Answer: Candidate for a breast revision You should only consider a breast revision 6-9 months post op. The final appearance, shape, and movement are not exactly the same as normal breasts. The surgically enlarged breasts do not move in the same way as normal breasts. They tend to be firmer. The contours are usually somewhat different than normal breasts. In some patients these discrepancies may be rather noticeable. Although every effort is made to place the implants symmetrically, complete symmetry is rarely achieved. Immediately after surgery, the breasts are swollen and firmer. The final shape and size is approximated after 2 to 3 months, but up to one year may be required for the end result.

Answer: You started out in a tough spot If you look closely, you're breasts are at totally different levels. Your nipples are at different places on the breast. You also had really large implants placed, which are highly variable depending on how they're placed. Your incisions have ridden up onto the breast and your left implant has bottomed out significantly from where it started. When that happens, the nipple rides upwards, opposite the direction of the implant.Bottoming out can be corrected with surgery to re-secure the implant to a higher position, but boy is that tough when the implant is 500cc.

Answer: Options? Thank you for your question and providing photos. Based on your photos it appears one breast has settled lower than the other. This can be fixed but will require a surgical procedure called a capsulorrhaphy. I would recommend you discuss this with your PS. Best of luck
