Teardrop Implant Rotation
Description
Teardrop implant rotation, also known as anatomical implant rotation, implant flipping, or implant turned upside down, is a specific complication that can occur after breast augmentation using shaped or teardrop breast implants. Unlike round implants, these are designed to mimic the natural breast shape, so if they rotate or flip upside down, the breast may look asymmetrical, flattened, or have an unnatural contour. This breast implant malposition—sometimes also called implant malrotation—can happen due to factors like poorly fitted implant pockets, scar tissue tightening (capsular contracture), or even natural changes in the breast over time. Common signs include visible changes in breast shape, unevenness, discomfort, or sometimes no symptoms at all. If you’re noticing these changes, especially after breast augmentation with a teardrop or anatomical implant, you may need revision surgery to restore a natural look and feel. South Korea is a leading destination for revision breast surgery, offering expert surgeons and comprehensive support for international patients seeking solutions for rotated or malpositioned breast implants.
