Breast augmentation - do I need revision surgery? (Photos)

Question

Photos are before, 3 months and 6 months. I'm looking for your thoughts on my situation. Would love feedback. Thanks!!

Gary M. Horndeski, MD · Answer

In your before photograph, your breasts were too low on the chest wall and widely separated. At this time, augmentation will not solve your problem. You need a lift and the technique I recommend is The Bellesoma Method. This will reshape your breast tissue creating upper pole fullness without implants, elevate them higher on the chest wall and more medial to increase your cleavage. Vertical scars are avoided, nipple sensation (in 95%) and the ability to breast feed are maintained if not injured during your previous surgery.

Best Wishes,

I think there is a deficiency of volume medially on both sides which is most likely due to the method of implant placement.  also it appears that the implants could be larger.  Otherwise your anatomy should not have been so challenging to get a better outcome.

Hello,Please tell us a little bit more about your situation. InformationSuch as what was performed (what type of augmentation etc) and most importantly what bothers you now that you are 6 months after surgery

Connie Hiers, MD, FACS · Answer

With your anatomy, your breasts sit low on your chest and the base of your breasts cannot be raised to sit higher. However, a lift could be done to help lift some.  You are thin in your upper chest. Placing the implant behind the muscle will help increase some upper breast fullness, but you still will not be full in that area. I do not suggest going larger for you will sag more. With what surgery and placement of the implants that have been done, you do have the expected results.

It looks like your skin envelope is being stretched out a bit.
I have a feeling the Pectoralis muscle is not holding the weight of the implant and the implant is beginning to bottom out.
This may continue to get worse overtime and may become a challenging situation to correct over time. It’s not really possible to give you a quality assessment with such limited information.
Overall, the results look reasonable at this time but if that’s the change over six months what are they going to look like in a few years. 
Maybe you could tell us what your concerns are?Mats Hagstrom MD
