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.

**LiMO Plastic Surgery Clinic Korea: Expert Anti-Aging, Facelift, Eye Rejuvenation & Body Contouring in Gangnam, Seoul**
Enquiries go directly to the clinic

Free consultation from the clinic

LiMO Plastic Surgery Clinic, located steps from Sinnonhyeon Station in Gangnam, Seoul, specializes in anti-aging procedures with a team of board-certified plastic surgeons offering personalized and safe surgical care for natural, youthful results. Face & Neck Lifting Procedures Facelift: This surgery lifts and tightens sagging facial tissues by making discreet incisions near the ears, adjusting deep layers and buccal fat for a defined jawline. The result is a rejuvenated, natural appearance with minimal scarring and long-lasting effects. Mini-SMAS Lift: The Mini-SMAS lift targets both the skin and the SMAS (Superficial Musculoaponeurotic System) layer using special threads, offering a firmer and longer-lasting result than standard thread lifts. This procedure involves hidden incisions for a faster recovery and effective rejuvenation. Thread Lifting: Absorbable threads are inserted under the skin to lift sagging tissues, with various thread types (Mint Lift, Dual-Cog, Tesslift, Silhouette Soft, Mono Thread) chosen for each patient. This minimally invasive option improves facial contours, stimulates collagen, and offers fast recovery with a natural look. Upper Face Rejuvenation Forehead Lift: A forehead lift smooths forehead wrinkles and raises drooping brows through several small incisions, sometimes using endoscopic guidance. It rejuvenates the upper face, enhances eye appearance, and creates a softer, more vital expression. Fat Grafting Facial Fat Graft: This procedure transfers purified fat from your own body to areas of the face that have lost volume, such as cheeks or under-eyes. PRP-enrichment and advanced placement techniques ensure better fat survival, natural contours, and improved skin texture. Eye Rejuvenation Procedures Sub-brow Lift: Lifting the skin and tissue right below the eyebrow, this technique opens the eyes and reduces upper eyelid sagging without altering the eye shape. It restores a youthful gaze by strengthening muscles, removing excess fat, and preventing future drooping. Upper Blepharoplasty: Upper eyelid surgery removes excess skin and fat while sometimes reshaping the double eyelid crease. This offers a refreshed, more open look and resolves hooded or heavy lids. Lower Blepharoplasty: Lower eyelid surgery smooths under-eye bags and wrinkles by removing or repositioning fat and tightening sagging skin and muscles. The incision is concealed just under the lash line for a smoother, more youthful under-eye area. Transconjunctival Fat Repositioning with Pretarsal Fullness: Incisions inside the lower eyelid allow for the repositioning of bulging fat and the addition of microfat grafting to improve under-eye hollowness. This approach addresses dark circles, eye bags, and wrinkles with long-lasting, natural results. Breast Surgery Breast Lift (Mastopexy/with or without Implants): A breast lift elevates and reshapes sagging breasts by removing excess skin and tightening tissue, with or without the addition of implants. This restores a youthful breast contour and improves firmness and volume for a balanced, natural appearance. Body Contouring Procedures Abdominal Lift (Abdominoplasty/Tummy Tuck): This surgery removes loose, sagging skin and excess fat from the abdomen, while also tightening weakened muscles. It is ideal for those with abdominal changes after pregnancy, weight loss, or aging, resulting in a flatter and more toned midsection. Each procedure at LiMO is tailored to the individual, supported by thorough consultation, advanced technology, and an emphasis on safety and natural aesthetic outcomes.
