In May of 2002, I had Mentour saline filled implants (36C). I am only 5”1’ and have a petite frame. The size is perfect for me and the main reason for the surgery was due to deflation of my breasts after pregnancy.

I have noticed that during the past year, the implants have shifted making the space larger between my breasts. My implants have always been very firm/hard. I have found that during the night it is uncomfortable to sleep on my side or stomach because of the implants pushing against rib cage. In the morning, I wake up and my breasts are sore. Have you heard of other women complaining about this? I am not certain if this is normal because of my build or if I should go see a plastic surgeon. Or if it is time to replace with new impants.

Cons: painful after surgery (under muscle), one sagging breast that is smaller than the other, one nipple has extroverted

Pros: self esteem

Why? deflated breasts after childbirth

In the morning, I wake up and my breasts are sore. Have you heard of other women complaining about this? I am not certain if this is normal because of my build or if I should go see a plastic surgeon. Or if it is time to replace with new impants. Thank you.

Great review?

Hi, there.I have gone and seen a few plastic surgeons since the comment I left.I did find that wearing a non wire bra does help tremendously. The pain I was experiencing was due to the position I was sleeping at night. It was very worth it. I wish I would have gotten silicone though. The shifting of the breasts to the side is normal because that is the way breasts are suppose to be (as long as the space is not too much). Having an incision around the aerola leaves a scar, plz consider that and silicone :).

HI,there. I haven't got my implants yet. I've heard of wearing a non-underwire bra may help the pain you may be having. I'm 4'11 and hoping soon to get to a B cup. I weigh 94-95 ponds. I'm scared of the same problem. Please write back if you have found a solution. It would help be decide my cup size. Thank You. Sincerely, Amy
