I had my implants removed in July after just 6 months. I made a huge mistake and realised immediately they weren’t for me. My implants were under the muscle and I’ve been left with muscle distortion. I’m from Australia and some surgeons have said the muscle can be repaired others have said it’s impossible to repair. I’d just really like an honest answer if there’s a way to correct it. I had some fat grafting done at the time of implants so one breast looks like it has double bubble.

Answer: Muscle distortion after breast implant removal During the operation, the muscle is seen and it may or may not be possible to repair it back down the chest wall. During breast augmentation surgery, the pectoralis muscle is released at is lower insertion if the implants are placed under the muscle. With the stretch from the implants, the muscle can be thinned down and it may not be substantial enough to hold a stitch for repair.
