Why do I have waterfall deformity again after capsulectomy, replacement implants and lift? (Photo)

December 6, 2023
Asked By:missben

Breast implants were originally put in 2008, after several years I developed a waterfall deformity as you’ll see in the first frontal photo. In Oct 2022 I underwent capsuloctomy for capsule contraction, replace implants slightly smaller (doctors preference) put in same pocket and an anchor breast lift. 1 year later, the same breast has “malfunctioned” and has developed this waterfall deformity again. See the side photo. Why has this happened? And what to do to correct this? Please help!
