I’m 6 months post op, had BA w/lift paid 11k, the first month they looked amazing, 6 wks later I started noticing my RT implant moving towards the armpit, 3 months later my left implant started moving to armpit, now 6 months post op and my breasts are sagging and u can’t even tell I had a lift. My surgeon tells me I just need to wear a tighter fitting sports bra lol.. I went to another surgeon and he wants 8k to fix the problem, says I need a lift and pocket repair. Implant size 470cc srx Help!
Answer: Augmentation mastopexy revision Thank you for your question. If your implants are under the muscle, overtime the muscle test to push the implants down and laterally, towards your armpit. The key is to limit this attack as much as possible. Ass implants become larger, it is more difficult to control them from sagging Especially when combined with a breast lift. You would benefit from tightening the breast pocket, and an internal mash to provide longer lasting results. Additionally, you can consider downsizing your implants and even performing a hybrid type of procedure where you can place a smaller implant with some fat grafting to produce a more natural results. Good luck.

Answer: Breast Augmentation Thank you for your question. With any breast augmentation and lift, your breasts will over time return to a lower position due to gravity. Due to the large implant volume, it is reasonable that your implants "dropped". I recommend speaking with a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss your concerns.

Answer: Lift If your implants were not placed behind the muscle, your tissue tends to sag again fairly early because of the extra weight. Also, you chose a large size which will still sag because of the weight. If you lift again, go with something smaller and less heavy and have it placed behind the muscle.

Answer: Breast lift and fall Hello, thank you for your question. Usually with a breast lift and implants it is common for things to fall after several months. We can never get them to stay perky because of gravity. Of course there is a time frame when we would expect to see that in. I would just go back to your plastic surgeon talk about your concerns and see what options you have. Feel free to check our before and after page.

Answer: Breast lift results Dear notarygirl74, 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.
