one boob looks flat..some advice pretty please
by FLOWER11 29th April 2011, 10:33 pm
My left-boob looks flat like I only had a lift on it and no implant....yes its settled faster than the right but it has no shape like the right one...i have an appt w my Dr. in a wk but was wondering if you would take a look and see if you see what I'm talking about...
I had a full anchor lift
w/aug on 3/30/11
natrelle mod.profile behind the muscle
R-390 bag filled to 400cc
L-360 bag filled to 360
you think it can be corrected by simply changing the bag to the 390??

Hi There
If one side seems a little flatter and you have salines, there is always the possibility that the implant is underfilled as you point out - or possibly has leaked - which is perfectly safe but inconvenient as it would have to be refilled / replaced. The alternatives would be that you have a tighter breast envelope or less breast tissue on the flatter side but your surgeon would know that from the operation. Best to see him / her again and point it out. It should be something that is correctable without reopening all the incisions. Hope that helps - let me know how you get on.
