Deep rippling after mastectomy - advice? (photos)

Good afternoon,
So you had a crappy surgeon who ditched you and ran- happens all the time- I hear this each and every day because I specialize in fixing problems. You need new implants, possibly a switch to submuscular if your muscle is present and healthy and undamaged, and definitely several sheets of Strattice mesh on each side.

Dear Exciting166947,
I understand your concern. However, without a proper assessment, it would be difficult to determine what went wrong. It is best that you visit your plastic surgeon for further assessment or ask for a second opinion. Only after a thorough examination, you can get proper recommendations and advice.

You are thin and the pre-pectoral implant shows through the thin skin envelope. A possibility is to reposition your implants below the muscle and at the same time do a lift.

Best Wishes,

You could have the implants placed behind the muscle and your surgeon could use dermal grafts to help give more coverage. If you have any donor fat, fat grafting could also be done.
