Correction of Inferior Migration of the breast crease (Bottoming Out)

Case Details

Patient Information: 24 year old female underwent inframammary (below the breast) placement of 286cc round silicone gel filled implants under the muscle. Initially, the implant placement was perfect. Only four months later, she developed lower pole stretch with inferior displacement of the lower breast creases. As the crease dropped, the scar which was initially in her crease, was now above the crease.

The before images show her just prior to undergoing revision demonstrating significant inferior displacement of the lower breast crease. The after images show the patient six months after revision with a stable result. There is restoration of upper pole fullness, reduction in lower pole fullness and the nipple areolar complex (the “nipple”) was restored to the proper position.
