Hello Dr. Kearney,

I Recently Had My BA (July 2009). I've Had Problems With Slight Tenting (Symmastia) && Bottoming Out.

I've Seen My Surgeon, And She Suggests 2 Things.

1.) Switching From Unders To Overs?

2.) Going In And Stitching Up The Pockets?

My Question Would Be...

Which Do You Suggest? Also, When Switching From Unders To Overs..Will This Fix The Symmastia/Bottoming Out??

Thank You In Advance For Your Reply

Changing pockets will fix the problem but then you should change to silicone and a smaller implant. Closing the pockets also works but can be a little tricky and the stitches don't always hold. I would ask your plastic surgeon what he/she prefers to do
