Breast Augmentation

I had my breast done 8 years ago, I had nothing, they had trouble fitting one of the implants because I was so small, that breast is somewhat hard still and the other drops over very far and moves a lot! My cleavage gap is just that a huge gap when I lay down, could send a picture privately but wondering if this is normal.

Procedure: Breast Augmentation

Smooth round implants can slide over time. Aging can also widen the chest width. Another surgery could correct your implants. You could consider a textured implant, which has the slight risk of ALCL but less lateral displacement over time. You also may be now able to have a larger implant if desired. The one implant may have bottomed out. The other option is securing the lateral and inferior fold with suture. You should see a board certified plastic surgeon or two for opinions.

Thank you for sharing your question. It sounds as if you have a couple of issues taking place, neither of which is "normal." Best to submit photographs or seek out in-person consultations for the appropriate diagnosis and treatment plan.

I agree with both colleagues. It is possible that each one of your beasts require different surgical strategy achieve a nice result.
