Answer: Breasts Yes, you are bottoming out from the weight of the residual breast tissue. More can be removed using the inferior incision along with excess skin, or wear a really good supporting bra. Going smaller is the best choice.

Answer: Bottoming out Yes, it does appear that the breasts are bottoming out. It's difficult to stop this from progressing. For correction a second reduction or lift is needed. Mesh can be used to help support the tissues in an effort to prevent this happening again.

Answer: Correction of pseudoptosis (bottoming out) You will likely need another surgery to remove the extra lower breast skin. Depending on the surgery you had and the time it took for your lower breast skin and tissue to stretch and fall, your surgeon may want to consider techniques to add support to your tissues to help prevent this from happening again or to slow the process and give you a longer lasting result. A detailed, in person exam and a review of your operative report are needed to determine the best plan for you.

Answer: Bottoming out Dear Fantastic68921, bottoming out occurs when the implant falls below the current breast crease or inframammary line. It's more likely to happen with inframammary incisions, which is why I try not to use the inframammary approach to any breast surgery. Bottoming out can also occur if an implant is too large for the breast pocket. That is why it is important to choose an implant size that's correct for your body. I perform numerous measurements in the office to determine optimal implant size for my patient's bodies. If you are concerned, please check it with your plastic surgeon for reassurance and to further discuss your options and possibility of revision.

Answer: Breast Reduction Bottoming Out I would recommend you wear a good supportive bra as much as possible. I generally ask that my patients wear a sleep bra and wear a good sports bra when they are active and at all other times to wear a good support bra with or without wire as long the bra provides them with good support. Hope that helps
