Vertical indentations 3 years post op. Should I be worried about the integrity of this implant? (Photo)

Asked By:GW1976 in Avon Park, Florida

I had a lift and under muscle silicone implants in 2020. From the beginning there have been adhesion/dent on the outside bottom where it seems they have a deep “tug” on them so I plan to get them redone I hope later this year. Recently they’ve developed vertical indentations. Is this normal? Should I be worried about the integrity of the implant? One is more pronounced than the other but has a small dimple that’s new also.
