Breast augmentation

I had a breast augmentation Jan 2018. My implants were sitting so high up with my nipple facing down. The implants harden when I lift my arms up or lie down. I was waiting at least a year before I thought about revision. I then got pregnant & I decided to breast feed. Now I'm ready for revision, considering my implants stayed high up with my nipple still facing down. & they still harden. My dr has been ignoring my calls & says now it's my fault my boobs are ruined from pregnancy & breastfeeding. Which I do understand that had SOME affect on them. But they were in bad shape & needed revision before I got pregnant & breastfed. I'm just ready for my boobs to feel nice & soft & to have a nipple in the right position with an under boob :(

You have to wait at least a year for your breasts to settle. You have to massage the implant down into the pocket. And then getting pregnant means your glands enlarge which of course compromised your results.

I'm sorry this happened to you. It's sounds like you got a capsular contracture (hardening of implants). I'm happy you're ready to move and get the boobs you deserve. Please go to several consultations and make sure they know how to remove a capsular contracture implant. Thanks for sharing your experience. Wishing you well.

Breast re sitting too high

I am a mother of 4 breast fed all 4. I’m 25 years old, before surgery I was a 34A. I went with a 560cc high profile saline implant. I have always wanted bigger breasts. I got a Breast augmentation January 20,2018. I am very concerned that my implants are sitting to high. I went in for a post op appointment on February 3,2018. My doctor seemed very concerned and asked if I had been wearing the breast band/strap. I was never given one to start with. I only received the post op bra that I paid for. So hearing this I was a little disappointed. He immediately put a strap on me and I have been wearing it since then. Is this normal? I asked if I was going to need surgery to fix this and he said we won’t know until 6 months. Just thinking I will be like this for 6 months saddens me, I wish I wouldn’t have got them done now.
