What is the best way to fix? I'm 10 months post op. Breast Reduction - short scar technique. Puckering and indent on left breast (you can feel a hole in breast) and nipples shifted outward. I wanted to be a large/full C and I am came out a regular B. I was previously a very full saggy D (left) DD (right) also think my breast are bottoming out. I want to be a large/very full C. Fat transfer is preferred But open to options.
Answer: What Is The Best Way To Fix My Breast Reduction? Obviously, an in person exam would give the greatest amount of information.That being said, based on the photographs you sent, it appears that the vertical incision from your nipple to your inframammary fold is too long. If a higher horizontal incision of normal length, was done it would correct the apparent bottoming out, give fullness to the upper quadrant of your breast, and possibly obviate the necessity for fat grafting and/or the placement of a breast implant.Your nipples turning outward and upward, I believe, are a function of the elongated vertical incision, and if this was shortened, your nipples would point in a more desirable position, both vertically and horizontally.I believe your plastic surgeon did a good job as far as he or she went, and this type of problem is experienced by all plastic surgeons who do lift/reductions at one time or another. If I were you, I would go back and speak with your personal plastic surgeon.

Answer: Breast Reduction Issues Thank you for your question and for your photos. An in person examination with a board certified surgeon would be best to discuss various treatment options and what results to expect. I feel that for now a breast revision surgery would be best to remove the inferior skin.

Answer: Breast reduction concerns Hello and thank you for your question and sharing your photos. I believe you benefit from a revision surgery, to remove some of the redundant inferior pole skin at the fold in a horizontal fashion. Fat grafting and implants are both reasonable options. You should discuss the pros and cons of each with your plastic surgeon. Best,

Answer: Is the best way to fix my bad breast reduction a breast fat transfer or implants? From your photos it appears that you would benefit from skin excision to help with the shape. If you are wanting more volume an implant will provide upper pole fullness to the breasts. Fat transfer will give you more volume, but the overall look may be different than an implant. I encourage you to meet with a board certified plastic surgeon near you to discuss your concerns and goals for surgery.
