I am devastated by how terrible the left breast looks. It is 5 days after surgery. Did something go wrong in surgery? What can be done to correct this? Was my breast tissue destroyed/removed in surgery? I'm 44 years old. My explanted implants were 325 cc, silicone, over the muscle, in place for 13 years. Before this pair, I had saline implants under the muscle for 10 years.

Answer: Concave It is very difficult to give an opinion about your surgery without reviewing all of the information surrounding your procedure. It is possible that your problem existed before surgery, or was created by the surgery. The best option for your now is to return to visit your surgeon and discuss the procedure and outcome with him/her.

Answer: Give it some time The old implants most likely have caused that area (the indentation shown in your pics) of your natural breast tissue to thin, which happens with all implants to some degree. This can be more pronounced after removal of submammary (above the muscle) implants or if they were large implants. With a few months time that area will likely change and get better. If it doesn't improve enough, you may consider fat grafting after talking with your PS. Make sure you see your PS for follow up. You will be okay.
