Breast Caved in After Removal? What Next? Can Time Fix This? Lift?
My breast are caved in after removal. I want to be implant free if possible. Will time heal this? Will they fluff up? Will a lift fix it? Thanks to all you who reply.
Breast appearance after implant removal
Implants obviously contribute to the volume of your breasts. When they are removed patients still have a similar skin envelope but with less volume. This can create exactly the appearance you are struggling with. Time will improve things somewhat. It is hard to know exactly how much. Other possible treatments include mastopexy (removing some of the skin to change the skin envelope) or fat transfer (adding some of your own fat removed from part of your body to replace some of the volume once occupied by implant). In our San Francisco practice we use both techniques to improve breast appearance after implant removal.
Juvéderm Voluma XC is an FDA-approved hyaluronic acid filler specifically designed for deep injection in the cheek area to correct age-related volume loss. It uses Vycross technology, which cross-links different molecular weights of HA for improved lift capacity and longevity. Voluma can last up to 2 years in the midface, making it one of the longest-lasting HA fillers available.
When evaluating any cosmetic procedure, choosing a surgeon who operates in an accredited surgical facility is one of the most important safety decisions a patient can make.
