Ridging of implants
If you are very thin, you may feel ridges of the implant especially inferiorly even when they are placed in a biplanar (submuscular) pocket.

You may have subglandular implants
Please check with your surgeon about the position of the implants. Silicone implants have less rippling than the saline implants. If you have very thin breast tissue and the implants are above the muscle,rippling is going to be noticeable.

Palpable ridges with silicone implant
Rippling is inevitable to some degree due to fluid dynamics. This is not completely avoidable. However, it tends to be less with the higher profile or more cohesive style implants. I am not certain as to what is available in China but cohesive gels are available in Europe.
