I had 450 implants 3 years ago and I have never been happy with them they are too big,and now move around but I dont really want an uplift due to scars. My surgeon has suggested new implants tightening the pockets as they have been made to big (when lay down they are under arm)and fat injections to the top of my chest area as they are bottom heavy. Can this work of do I need an uplift?? pls help

Answer: Breast revision surgery You have implant malposition. The implants have bottomed out. There are several reasons for this but weakness of the support system of the inframammary crease or violation of the crease during surgery can be one of the causes. This can be corrected in one operation by removing your implants and using a biologic mesh like SERI to support the implant and prevent a recurrence. May also need a breast lift to reposition the breast.

Answer: TIghtening the breast pocket
It is possible that you would benefit from tightening of the implant pockets. If they are already too big, I would not recommend fat injections which will create an even larger appearance.
