Good luck!!! I really really hope everything goes better for you this time.
Frustrating set back - but it'll all work out. Before you know it, you'll be sporting the girls every chance you get :-). Glad to hear the revision went well.
So sorry to hear about your continuing problems! Praying that your recovery is going well and that you are experiencing no problems. I am currently looking at a revision as well. I see me PS in a week.
Wow!! I hope your doing better this time around!!
How are you doing? I hope things are working better for you this time. We have very similar stats (11 cm bwd and 5'1" , 110 lbs). I chose 450 cc mentor hp silicone under the muscle. My BA is on the 16th. Did your PS say that the issue you were having was due to the size of the implant or was it completely a different thing overall? Take care! Looking forward to your progress and recovery!

Bottoming out / double bubble

I'm so freaking upset last month I went to my ps to have my left incision looked at and showed him where my old fold was showing on my right breast and he said it was nothing.

Now it's getting worse and the implant looking like it is bottoming out. This is utter crap. I've wanted this my entire life for these and they are not TurNing out to what I wanted. Uhhh.

I'm so sorry you're going through this. It definitely looks like a double bubble to me....from what I've seen from others at least. This is why my surgeon doesn't lower the crease. I believe there is a way too use reinforcing mesh to prevent bottoming out but it looks pretty centered. I think it's just your old breast tissue laying above the implant. If you don't have tissue to cover the implant maybe you can have a revision to use your old crease to hide the implant. I really hope your surgeon is working with you to get your desired result. Have you had a second opinion? Good luck...I hope at the end if all this you get exactly what you want;)
hello,i hope you're doing well.I have similar issue first month of my surgery and everything goes away with the time.I was freaking out i had a double double or bottoming out.So i think you need to wait,good luck.
Bottoming out tends to happen more with implants that are too large. The extra weight is hard on your body. Hopefully he can fix it. You paid too much money to not get what you wanted

Removal and healing

Hey ladies,

So I've gone through utter hell. My left chest wall, arm, shoulder blade hurt on a daily basis and have not gotten better. On July 29, 2016 my implant became exposed and we had to do an emergancy explanation . Worst feeling ever!!! Put in a drain and started me on different antibiotics. I got the drain out a week later and slowly but surely finally stopped draining GREEN puss , and the incision heald. It's still red and angry and the rest of my body hurts. But I'm looking at November to have my new implany on the left side put in.

My surgeon has been amazing through all of this. If I were to have had this problem I'm so glad that I chose him. I don't know if the other would have been so attentive and compassionate.

Hope this finds yall well.

I am so sorry you are enduring this. I hope you heal and recovery soon.
Thanks. I also think I'm bottoming out on the other breast too
I bottomed out especially on my right breast with the 500 cc. I could tell by the IMF scar moving up my breast and I felt the implant moving down my body. My revision corrected the bottoming out on my left breast, but right not so much. Good luck with everything. When do you expect to get the implant back in?
I'm so sorry! What a nightmare, and the pain sounds awful. I hope you're feeling better having gotten different antibiotics and explanting. Before you know it you'll be good as new but the process sounds terribly frustrating. Big hugs to you!!
