What can be done to make my boobs look better? 8 months post-op, lift, 355cc implants, overs (Photos)

Question

I originally wanted 550-600cc was told i needed to do this in 2 stages which i totally get. The boobs i have now sit so low down i not sure why? Have they been placed in pockets wrong and that's caused this or was the uplift not done properly in the first place? They just feel very flat at the top part of my chest and low down. I want to get bigger implants as had big boobs before loosing 5 stone.
