  • Posted to I Have a Ripple in One of my Breast Implants. Why Did This Happen and What is Done to Fix This? on 22 Dec 2009

    Rippling is a common occurence with saline implants--I'm not sure about silicone. I have it too on the sides if I bend over a certain way. Even if yours are submuscular, this is happening because of the decrease in fatty tissue in the breast--likely due to your weight loss. I went in with very little fatty tissue--all skin basically. It's the fat that hides the ripples. Why yours is on the front is a bit confusing though. Could just be that you don't have much fat there.

    Looks like I'm scheduled for 1/7. He is indeed going to use three deep sutures, and will be removing a section of skin to get rid of the 1.5 cm difference b/t bottom crease and nipple. The new scar--which will be placed in the crease--will get stitches of course. I will be given a local for this procedure--yikes(!), but I'm pretty tough. He's predicting 7-10 days of no dancing. I have it in my head two weeks would be smart. I am not being charged for anything since I do not have to be anesthestised. Hopefully this'll do it!

    I got the impression my surgeon wants to raise the bottom of the pocket back up by stitching it closed by however much is needed to even it up with the left. I was worried about the strength of stitches vs. sutures. Did you say it would heal quickly though? I don't know what "recure" means. Thanks.

    From my personal experience, your left breast looks to be encapsulated. That it feels harder is an indication of this too. Like you, I experienced this shortly into my procedure even though I did everything I was supposed to do and nothing I was not. After six months, I had corrective surgery, during which the implant was replaced to rule out re-encapsulation due to bacteria present. This was done with NO ADDITIONAL COST from my surgeon. Your surgeon should be ashamed of himself for denying the obvious and pointing the finger at you and your expectations, which are not unrealistic at all. He sounds unprofessional--you need to report him and post his name. Good luck.
