After a mini gastric bypass surgery 3 years ago and subsequent massive weight loss, I had multiple procedures to get rid of the excess skin. I had a belt lipectomy, this went really well! After a few months I had a breast lift. Then a few months after I had breast implants. Unfortunately soon after they bottomed out. After 6 months, my surgeon advised me to have another procedure to add a mesh to support the implants. I went ahead but soon after the implants bottomed out again! What is wrong?
Answer: Breasts Your very thinned stretched out breast tissue is not supporting the weight of your implants. You should go smaller.

Answer: Addressing Recurrent Bottoming Out of Breast Implants After Multiple Surgeries It's possible that the recurrent "bottoming out" of your breast implants, where the implants slip below the breast crease, is due to several factors, even after the addition of a support mesh. Factors like skin quality, especially after significant weight loss and multiple surgeries, can affect the skin's ability to adequately support the implants. Additionally, surgical technique, the type and weight of the implants, might also play a role. It's crucial to discuss these recurring issues with your surgeon or consider a second opinion to assess and understand the specific causes in your case and explore the best options for a more stable and satisfactory outcome.

Answer: Lateral breast, axillary, back lift It appears that the central part of your breast lifting was satisfactory. You could collapsed laterally, and this requires an elevation of the lateral aspect of your axilla skin incorporated into a back lift as well, although I don’t see posterior picture.
