I have had an under muscle 325 breast augmentation done twice with the same surgeon. Both times the left breast has failed to drop into the pocket, leaving it misshapen. I’ve had a second opinion from the same company and they’re now recommending a new procedure but over muscle and anatomical shape (previous were round high profile) they’re recommending 430cc tall profile anatomical I’m worried the same issue may occur or I won’t get the shape and upper pole I want with this type of implant

Answer: Choosing the right pocket and implant Choosing the right implant is critical to getting a natural result. Typically, implants with lower profiles are flatter and can "reach" the upper pole of the breast. In contrast, higher-profile implants project more fullness in the front of the bra. Above or below the muscle, a subfascial breast implant above the muscle is ideal for giving more upper pole fullness while maintaining the pocket created. It is unhindered by the contractile forces of the pectoralis muscle and subsequent animation deformity. In some cases, an "internal bra" composed of absorbable biocompatible mesh can also be used to stabilize a large implant.

Answer: DONT AGREE Thank you for your question and I am sorry that you have had 2 surgeries and complications. It is always easier to assess and comment on your situation in person but I do not agree with anatomic implants. Perhaps placing an internal bra will be your solution. Im happy to do a virtual consultation and see if I can help.
