Bottoming out and rippling

Hi all, I've been doing some research on here about bottoming out and rippling, as my left boobie is still causing me headaches. I found it had rotated at about 8 weeks post op. PS agreed from my phone pictures that it definitely had, and he suggested no strenuous exercise, and bo underwired bras and trying to move it back manually myself (problem was temporary). It seems to have settled in a better position and the rotation is probably only about 20 degrees rather than 45. The rippling I noticed about 6 weeks has now got worse where you can actually see the ridges. There was one big ridge beneath my nipple so that there was a dip and then a bulge at the bottom. Having read up on this I see from a post from Cookie in May that this may actually be bottoming out. I had textured anatomicals and although I was pleased with the natural slope it seems now I have no implant from about half a centimetre below my nipple upwards. Is this bottoming out? How is this corrected? I will continue to research, but any advice would be great thanks. Rowan

Sounds like you're have a tough old time with your implants sweetness

Take a look at this diagram hun



As the implant slips down so it's sat lower than your actual breast on the chest wall babe. You may sometimes notice something called double bubble, which is as you describe a bulge at the bottom of the breast babe. The effect of the breast and then the bulge underneath is why it's described as double bubble. You may also find your nipple points in an upward position sweetness. From what you describe it does sound very much as though it has bottomed out doesn't it lovely
You should make an appointment to go back and see your surgeon hun. You do seem to be having far to many problems with this implant to ignore and it does sound like it needs sorting for you you now babe.

Please keep us updated with how you get on and I do hope all goes well at the consultation for you. I've heard good things of your surgeon so he should step up and sort it for you. Xx

Thanks so much for your input, the diagram is really helpful.

I bottomed out with my 2nd ba and it's corrected via a pocket revision so the pocket is sewn up tighter to hold the implant in place higher on your chest wall.

I had hardly any implant above my nipples it was all underneath and if I lifted my arms up the problem was emphases more soothe nipple is very high on the breast mound And assynitrical to the other.

Not too sure with anatomicals hunny as mine were round but the same principal to bottoming out would be applied x

Row80 I agree with Cookie hun, i think you deffo need to go back and see the consultant that did it and maybe post some pictures up on here for the other girls to see and maybe they can give you a bit of advice in the meantime chicken. Not had mine done yet but can you bottom out with overs? My consultant refused to do unders on me because i would deffo get this problem but he's also recommended anatomicals due to tuberous breasts. I'm worried i might still get double bubble with overs because of having a higher breast fold but Row80 go and see your consultant and remember that we're all here for you sorry you've had a bit of trouble with them so far x

Sorry balamory fruit, but that's wrong you can bottom out over or under and in fact the main reason for bottoming out early on is over dissection is either over or under and after a longer period of time it's due to the weight of the implant And infant more Likey to happen with overs in that respect as its just the breast tissue and skin providing the support.

Who is your surgeon hun? As that's not correct to say you would definatly get bottoming out with unders. Double bubble yes more so with unders than overs .

Mrs Ball Is right xx

Go back and see you PS xx It certainly sounds like bottoming out to me xx

Sorry you are having issues xx

Sorry i meant double bubble not bottoming out erm Mr Hardy. He said i would get it because i'm not completely flat chested (i'm a full 36B) and also have tuberous breasts, he said other surgeons may be willing to do it but in his professional opinion i would get double bubble so he refused and said if i deffo wanted unders (which i did originally) i would have to book with another clinic (which is fair enough because obviously he doesn't want his reputation ruined). He also said that having overs would help to balance out my tuberous breasts a bit more because it would weight down the skin and anatomicals would give me a better shape (though he said i could have rounds if i wanted) because i have a fair bit on top but just not a lot on the bottom x x x

Double bubble is more common with unders sweetness whereas bottoming out is more common with overs.

Going over the muscle seems to be the general advice for most with tuberous breasts babe. Xx

Cheers for the help Cookie and Mrs Ball just feel a bit strange because after looking up videos on youtube most tuberous breasts have the constriction cut and breast fold lowered but i've been told i don't need this because of what i have been recommended. I know this is a stupid question but can you bottom out with tuberous breasts? Can't find anything on google about it how would you go about putting pictures up in like a private album thingy? I'd love to see if other people have tuberous breasts because i can't really see it myself =s apart from the puffy nipple thing x

There have been. Few ladies with tuberous breasts on here their sharing picture staus will be under their avi. Not many share with newbies though.

Yes you can bottom out with any shape breast it's the implant and pocket that cause it not the shape of the breast.

If you google tuberous breast lots of images come up . Some more severe than others.
