Breast implant guarantee against rippling.
I am not aware about anyone offering a guarantee against rippling. I cannot imagine offering that . Yes, this is a larger than average breast implant.
There are numerous increased risks associated with this, and I am sure I will not even touch on half of them, but consider the following.
The size of the implant has been associated with:
1.Increased risk of loss of nipple sensation

Rippling implants

Breast implant revision costs
There are no set answers for the costs of a breast augmentation revision. Generally though, if the doctor feels the result is below their expectations, they will often cover much or all of the cost.
