Implant Displacement

Description

Implant displacement—also known as breast implant malposition, implant shift, or slipping breast implant—occurs when a breast implant moves from its original surgical pocket, leading to visible asymmetry, discomfort, or an unnatural look. This complication can result in the implant sitting too high, too low (commonly called "bottoming out"), moving outward toward the armpit (lateral displacement), or merging together in the chest center (symmastia or "uniboob"). Signs of implant displacement include uneven breast position, changes in nipple direction, visible rippling, and a feeling of tightness or pressure. In some cases, the implant may move noticeably during daily activities, making revision breast surgery necessary to restore natural appearance and comfort. South Korea is a top destination for medical tourists seeking correction of breast implant displacement, offering skilled surgeons and advanced techniques for long-lasting, symmetrical results.
