Can bottoming out cause pain and what can be done to fix my breasts? (Photos)

April 11, 2017
Asked By:SadBewbs87 in Suffolk, VA

Had saline implants for 6 years.I'm pretty sure one of my implants is bottoming out. It's lower and nipple looks larger. Both implants are drifting more towards armpit. They definitely feel smaller and less full these days. When I flex they do this weird thing shown in picture. Past few weeks I have actually been in pain, my breasts feel on fire and hurts to lay on stomach.Since they need fixed, thought this may be perfect time to switch to gummy ones.
