I had breast augmentation done approximately 8 years ago. One breast is now lower than the other. Should I consult a surgeon about a breast lift for one or both breasts to correct this in the future?
Answer: One breast is lower than the other after breast augmentation There are many reasons for asymmetry in breast position. Common ones include capsular contracture, implant malposition, and ptosis of the breasts. The recommended treatment would depend on the diagnosis. Your options can be explained during a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon who is experienced in breast revision surgery.

Answer: One Breast Lower Years After Breast Augmentation #breastimplants Without any photos to look at, it's not possible to say exactly what's going on in your case. However, if one breast is lower than the other, you may have experienced some "bottoming out" of one of your implants. This can be corrected with a revisionary breast surgery.Definitely schedule a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon to be evaluated.

Answer: Changes in your breasts after many years post augmentation Hi and thanks for posting your question. It's difficult to ascertain what is going on without photos or an examination. It would likely be wise of you to seek a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon to have an examination of your breast implants. Some of the more common issues women encounter many years out from their initial operation are capsular contracture as well as recurrent breast drooping (or "ptosis") after their augmentation has been done. Your plastic surgeon should be able to help you understand what the cause is and how to go about potentially fixing the problem.Best wishes

Answer: Progressive breast asymmetry following augmentation is not unusual 8 years down the road. Schedule a consultation with your surgeon or other local boarded plastic surgeons and find out what would be best for you. This depends on what side you like better and if you are wanting to be perkier or now. It also depends on whether your folds are level or not and what kind of pockets you have at this point. Your surgeon should be able to go over all the viable options for you from which you can choose from. Don't be surprised if your surgeon suggests you get new implants too.
