Breasts are low and pushed to the sides. What are my options? (Photo)

Thank you for your question. During the revision surgery, the pocket on lateral side should be partially closed, while medial side space, if it’s closed should be opened. Moreover, to make inframammary span tighter and the cleavage looking more natural, I would recommend performing fat graft on the medial borders of the implants. However, while your breasts only slightly low, I wouldn’t recommend the breast lift, as it would leave you with visible scar.

Your breasts are only held up by the skin envelope. The weight of the implant plus your breast tissue is causing your skin to stretch and deflect inferior and laterally. You will need smaller implants or reinforce the breasts internally. I would need more information as far as your pre-operative measurements to give you a more accurate answer.

Best Wishes,

Gary Horndeski, M.D.

Dear Cool944124,
I understand your concern. However, without a proper assessment, it would be difficult to determine what went wrong. It is best that you visit your plastic surgeon for further assessment or ask for a second opinion. Only after a thorough examination, you can get proper recommendations and advice.

Your lateral pockets can be tighten to prevent them moving so far to the outside of your breasts. You probably need a lift to help tighten your breast tissue, not implants, so the tissue is positioned well.
