Revision and Lift Performed - I am not happy with results and would like to correct (Photo)

Question

Hello, I had a breast implant replacement done 8 months ago to replace a ruptured implant. I did have some Capsular Contraction as well. I received a lift and under the muscle implants. Kept 330cc implants size but did replace with under the muscle placement. I am super unhappy with the results. They feel like they are under my armpit and make me look boxy. I loved how my breasts looked after the initial surgery and even before this surgery even though they did have a sag. Help!

Dear Hopefull72,
I understand your concern. However, without a proper assessment, it would be difficult to determine what went wrong. It is best that you visit your plastic surgeon for further assessment or ask for a second opinion. Only after a thorough examination, you can get proper recommendations and advice.

Your lateral pockets could be tightened to help reposition your implants more to the center. Please discuss this with your surgeon.

Nice posed photos. In my opinion a full lift revision with lateral capsularraphy closure would improve the boxy, side boob effect. Fee $6,000+ Best to virtual consult with....

Richard P. Rand, MD, FACS (retired) · Answer

You posted excellent photos. What I see are implants that are too wide in diameter for your body causing serious side boob and which have drifted too far laterally and down. You would look better with a revision of the implant pockets closing off the sides and bottom areas (capsule repair). This can be done in many ways. A narrower, higher profile implant might also be considered.
