About bottoming-out surgery

Smooth implants are designed to move naturally inside the body, providing a soft feel.
However, if the implant moves excessively, it can shift downward out of position, a condition known as bottoming out.
Bottoming out affects breast shape, so when necessary, surgery is performed to correct the position and reinforce the tissue.

  • 01. Capsulectomy

    The capsule in the overly expanded lower pocket is excised.

  • 02. Capsule connection

    The stretched soft tissue is tied together, and the capsules are connected to reduce the space.

  • 03. Fascial fixation

    At the inframammary fold, periosteal and fascial tissue are additionally fixed to the tissue around the chest wall to prevent recurrence.
