I had saline breast implants under the muscle about 13 years ago. I recently noticed that one of them seems higher than it’s been before and is higher than the other one. I also feel a weird sensation when doing chest workouts on that side. Is this a sign of something bad?

Answer: Breast Implant Has Moved Up, Is Anything Wrong?
The difference is present, but is mild and was prior to surgery. You could consider fat grafting to the smaller breast. If you have saline implants, more could be added to the smaller side. If you go up to the next size in gel implants, it is possible that the smaller side would then be larger....
Much will depend on exactly what was done during the procedure. "Dropping and fluffing" (a process wherein breast implants round out the lower breast poles, and the breasts overall may may appear to be larger as breast implant "settle") may not necessarily occur with revisionary breast surgery....
It is really difficult from the photos to explain the cause of this dent, so I think you will need a clinical examination, also I think having a scan is a good idea too.
