Post Double Bubble (double boob or quadruple boob)

A double-bubble is a slang term for when an implant is placed under the muscle(s) of a patient with ptotic (sagging breasts). Now, slight ptosis is perfectly fine for an over placement -- in fact some surgeons choose this when a patient doesn't want a lift but isn't saggy enough to insist upon it. If the patient is given unders but has substantial sag, the breast tissue may fall further and create one set of breasts and the implant staying in its rightful pocket under the muscle creates the "second set of breasts".

Also be aware that this problem can happen after a woman was pregnant and the tissue now sags with the excess weight and stretch of the full mammary but the implant remains where it was originally placed, under the muscle in it's intended pocket. The moral of the story is, if you need a breastlift -- get one.

How is this condition fixed? Does it help to wear a bra?
