Dear Dazzling7050,bottoming out occurs when the implant falls below the current breast crease or inframammary line. It's more likely to happen with inframammary incisions, which is why I try not to use the inframammary approach to any breast surgery.Bottoming out can also occur if an implant is too large for the breast pocket. That is why it is important to choose an implant size that's correct for your body. I perform numerous measurements in the office to determine optimal implant size for my patient's bodies.If you are concerned, please check it with your plastic surgeon for reassurance and to further discuss your options and possibility of revision.Daniel Barrett, MDCertified, American Board of Plastic SurgeryMember, American Society of Plastic SurgeryMember, American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery

You may need to go somewhat smaller and add dermal graft like Alloderm to give better coverage and support.
Hello @Witty674625 thank you for your question. When an implant ruptures, it is best to remove it as soon as possible. However, implants can be removed at any time. When you decide to have the surgery consult with one or more board certified plastic surgeons for more information and options...
