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.

Answer: Can bottoming out cause pain and what can be done to fix my breasts? I am sorry to hear about the problems you are experiencing. Online consultants will not be able to help you with specific diagnosis when it comes to determining the cause of your pain. Having said that, bottoming out (and other types of breast implant malpositions) can definitely be associated with discomfort. Patients most often report that they have pain in the areas where the breast implant is displacing. For example, if the patient has a bottoming out problem, the discomfort is often located along the lower breast poles; the discomfort is often alleviated when the patient's support the lower breast whole area with their hands or supportive bra. Capsulorraphy surgery is effective when it comes to correcting bottoming out and/or lateral breast implant displacement ( "drifting towards armpit") that you describe. My best advice: seek consultation with well experienced board-certified plastic surgeons. Accurate diagnosis will be important when it comes to determining a good surgical plan. Best wishes.

Answer: Implant issue You seem to have an animation issue with the implants. As for the pain, etc... you would have to be seen in person to be properly evaluated.
