I had over the muscle 450cc silicone gel implants.They look too big and saggy.They also hurt when I lay on my stomach,especially the left one.The left breast is also very hard and has a different shape.Do I need a revision?

Answer: Breast Shape Problem Unfortunately, you probably have capsular contracture. This problem is more common after implant placement on top of the muscle.Surgery might be needed depending on your examination. Treatment options include replacement with new implants under the muscle and removal of all the old capsule that is hard.Please, see your doctor for an in depth discussion. Best Wishes!Dr Chris Saunders

Answer: What is wrong with my breast implants? I appreciate your question.Please follow up with operating MD so he/she can examine and rule out capsular contracture and recommend most appropriate treatment plan at this time. The best way to assess and give true advice would be an in-person exam. Please see a board-certified plastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic and restorative breast surgery. Best of luck!
