I had gel smooth surfaces implant surgery 2013. Since then, i have had a little boy who will be three i. April. My left breast has significantly fallen and i am concerned there might be a leak. I am looking to replace implants and tighten everything up with a great doctor. I am concerned i might have a leak as well

Answer: Drop out It looks like you got both kinds of dropout. One side has a loss of the inframammary fold adhesion to the chest wall, leading to double bubble, on the other side the inframammary fold position is intact, leading to rock in sock deformity. Neither of these issues are related to implant integrity.

Answer: Silicone implant Thank you for your question. Your left implant is obviously deformed, it could be capsular contracture but it is impossible to say with certainty if the implant is leaking. You would need an ultrasound or an MRI to know this before surgery. If it is leaking or ruptured, the warranty on the implant will likely cover the replacement of the implant itself depending on the manufacturer.Good luck
