I got my breasts done almost 3 years ago. I got 530cc HP on R and 590cc MP on L to correct some asymmetry due to Pectus excavatum. I want to reduce my size to 250cc mod+ and 350cc hp to get a more balanced look. I also noticed some tenting in the midline of my breast. I figure it's just because the implants are far too wide for me because when I flex, my midline separates. Would smaller implants fix this issue and give me the cleavage I desire? Could I get away without a lift. No kids. 23 y/o

Answer: Revision surgery Dear ElectricxVibes, breast revision surgery is the most difficult plastic surgery procedure performed. Botched breast surgery alters normal tissue planes and laxity, the ability of breasts to heal properly, and leaves scar tissue that dramatically affects the level of difficulty of the corrective surgery.Many patients come in to correct poor outcomes from their initial surgeries. The most common problems are due to implant malposition, bottoming out of the implant, poor scarring, and incorrect implant size.While the type of revision required will depend on the result of the previous surgery and the desired result of the patient, some revisions involve extensive pocket repair that may or may not need specialized external bras.If you are considering breast surgery revision, you should speak with a board certified plastic surgeon and have yourself properly assessed. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations. Also, you have to make sure that your surgeon understands your breast augmentation goals.

Answer: Breast implant downsize thank you for your question and posting appropriate pictures. You're correct that the reason for your midline tenting is because your left-sided implant is too wide. You are a very good candidate for downsizing test to discuss sizing, either virtually or in person as a dramatic downsize may need a lift, however, if you have a moderate downsize, you will get away with internal lifting of the capsule.
