Did my permanent suture fail for correction of lateral displacement? (Photo)

April 26, 2023
Asked By:bretney15 in Virginia Beach, Virginia

I underwent lateral displacement surgery in February where my surgeon corrected the issue with a permanent internal suture. Everything looked perfect until last week as I’ve noticed my left breast has fallen back to its original position. Is there a correction that will fix this? Will I be expected to pay? This is my 3rd surgery. I feel so insecure and helpless at this point.
