7 mo post op breast aug with 405 cc utm. I am 5’4” and 140 lbs. I called my Dr and he said this was due to the skin stretching and he would need to remove the excess skin in office and tightening the skin would correct it. I feel like this is a band aid for the actual issue. Is mesh/internal bra the best fix?
Answer: Implants The actual problem is that your implants are too large and heavy for your now stretched and thinned tissue. I would suggest going smaller. Mesh could be helpful. Just removing excess lower skin may not raise up the implant and skin does stretch.

Answer: Unilateral or bilateral bottoming out Based on your one posted, photo appears one breast has bottomed out while the other one is on the borderline. In my opinion, this is best addressed in your situation by breast lift or breast lift revision to tighten the skin envelope. In addition, mesh can be added at a larger expense with more complications. This should be discussed in a virtual consultation.
