I started with pretty far apart breasts but I went through the armpit for my incision point. It’s hard to tell because my breast were far apart to begin with but does my implant seem displaced ?
Answer: Is my implant displaced? From the photos it does not seem that your implant is obviously displaced. The implants seem to have settled behind each nipple. You will have some natural movement of the implant as you move. Visit with your surgeon for an evaluation if you continue to be concerned.

Answer: Possible right side revision Often the armpit approach to breast augmentation results in the implants falling back into the armpit (lateral displacement). This is why many surgeons choose not to use this technique. I would recommend seeing your plastic surgeon or getting a second opinion by a surgeon who uses an IMF (inferior mammary fold) approach.Hope this helps!

Answer: Revision needed Transaxillary approach often results in implants dissecting inferiorly and laterally, which appears to be what happened in your case. Most physicians have stopped using this approach for that reason. I recommend you undergo re-implantation with an inframammary approach to reposition the implants more medial. You will also need the pockets repaired inferiorly and laterally to correct the displacement.
