Implant shifted. What is the best option to treat this? (Photo)

Intellectual5049
I got my breast implants in 2015 and was really happy with the results. In 2018, I had a child and the left implant shifted. I want to get the left one fixed. I talked to the doctor who performed the procedure and he told me that he would insert some sort of mesh in it in order to fix it and keep the implant in place. I got a second opinion from another doctor that did another procedure on me and she said that she’d stitch the skin down under the implant.. I’m wondering which option is best
