Removal and Replacement of Breast Implants with Mastopexy

This thirty-nine year old woman developed a "snoopy deformity" of her breast implants after childbearing. This is when the breast tissue sags and the implant stays in the same place, and the nipple is no longer at the most projecting part of the breast. It makes the breasts look "long" from the front. Often times patients cannot put their finger on what it is that bothers them about their breasts, because the implants are still sitting high. To the eye, the problem is that the nipple is no longer at the most projecting part of the breast. In the "after" picture she is three months s/p bilateral removal of subpectoral saline implants, placement of Allergan smooth round 371 cc silicone gel midrange profile implants, and a vertical (lollipop) mastopexy.
