If you’re thinking, “My breast implants don’t fit my body anymore,” you’re not alone. Read on to learn why your breast implants may no longer feel right, what options are available, and how to navigate the decision-making process with confidence.
Why Your Breast Implants May Not Fit Your Body Anymore
There are several reasons why breast implants may now feel out of place or wrong for your body:
Physical Changes Over Time
The natural aging process, weight fluctuations, and pregnancy can all affect the appearance and feel of your breast implants.
- Aging: As you age, skin loses elasticity, and gravity sets in, which can change the position of your implants.
- Pregnancy: Hormonal changes and breastfeeding can negatively impact breast size and shape.
- Weight Changes: Major weight changes can affect breast volume and how implants sit on your frame.
Shifts in Aesthetic Preferences
What you once loved may no longer match your vision for your body. Trends and personal tastes evolve, and many women who opted for larger implants years ago may now prefer a more natural or proportionate look.
Physical Discomfort
Some people experience discomfort or complications, such as capsular contracture or implant rupture. These issues can make implants feel hard, uneven, or painful.
Activity Level Changes
Changes in activity levels or lifestyle can also influence how you feel about your implants. Athletes, for instance, may find that larger implants interfere with their physical performance or comfort during exercise.
What Are Your Options?
If you’re unhappy with your breast implants, you don’t have to live with them. With breast implant revision surgery, Dr. Burton can remove and replace your implants. It can be a great option if you want to change your breast size or shape. You can also switch from one type of implant to another (saline to silicone, for example.)
Another option could be breast implant removal without replacement. However, it’s important to know that your breasts could look empty or deflated afterward. Dr. Burton can suggest options to overcome this problem, such as a breast lift.
Choosing What’s Right For You
Changing or removing breast implants isn’t just a physical decision—it’s an emotional one, too. At Conception Cosmetics, we’re here to guide you as we empathetically listen to your needs and goals and help you enjoy renewed confidence and comfort in your skin.
