Cohesive Gel Silicone Implants 4 Years Ago

Hi, I had cohesive gel silicone implants 4 years...

Hi, I had cohesive gel silicone implants 4 years ago. Good results esp left side which is fine but am regretting it now as might not beable to afford to get them replaced just yet.

All was well until i noticed when i lift my right arm up a lump appears under the implant about the size of a golf ball. i went to see a specialist who said it looks like the implant has slipped into a new pocket as she could push it back up. the lump is soft & does seem like it is the implant filling a new space. she said it could b fixed or i could leave it for now, but now hurts, i am now trying for a baby and am worried about leaving it.

Great review?

I'm sorry I didn't know about this site before. I got cohesive gel implants about a year after you did. 2-3 years ago I noticed rippling but today I felt the big ripple/pocket/lump-I dont now in the lower part of the implant. When I lay back I feel nothing but when I stand I can poke and feel the implant and it's sooo uncomfortable.
