Do I look normal? 6 months post op. I had 400cc placed under the muscle in June 2017. (Photos)

Question

I am feeling very insecure about how they settled I think they are way to far apart.

Nirmal Nathan, MD · Answer

It does look as if your implants are too far apart. Your intermammary distance (the space between your impants) is way too large to produce attractive cleavage. This could have been secondary to your anatomy if your nipples were extremely wide spaced apart. Otherwise, your breast pockets were created too laterally. To correct this will require revisional surgery with a neocapsule. Good luck.

Your breasts are too far apart.  Revision with capsular tightening, or acellular dermal matrix is required for an improved appearance.Is the first photo before surgery, or immediately after?  More info would be helpfulGood luck

Thanks for the question. Based on your photos it looks as though your implants are too far apart. To fix this problem you need to have  new pocket created or your current pocket tightened. I think you may also benefit from a wider, less projecting implant which will help to give you more central cleavage. Best of luck!~Dr. Sieber

Hello. Thank you for your inquiry and congratulations on your surgery!
It is important to have an in-person medical assessment regarding this issue as it is difficult to determine virtually. Continue to update your doctor in the matter and follow their post-op protocol.
It is important to get cleared by your doctor before engaging in specific physical activity before the 3 month healing period has ended as the healing stage is crucial for healthy results.

Thank you for your question and photographs. It does appear that you have a wide breastbone which is been accentuated by a tal,l more high profile implant. The change of the angle from the sternum to the breast when it is this acute, calls attention to this width. In my experience, a wider than tall shaped implant (Sientra Oval Base) is more effective in hiding the situation. Hope that's helpful.
