My right breast dropper lower than the left. Second revision needed?

January 17, 2022

Late twenties, slim female - had a subtle breast augmentation (under the muscle) 3 years ago. Healed well however from early on I noticed the scar on my right breast was higher than the crease. About 1.5 years later, it was obvious my right breast had dropped lower than the left and looked fuller at the bottom. I qualified for revision surgery as my right implant had slipped below the pocket, but 9 months since having revision, the same thing has happened. Will a second revision fix this?
