How to Get Rid of Indentation Under Breast?

A
amariemcdonaldApr 23, 2009

I wore an underwire bra before my 3 month period was up, and have a slight indentation underneath my breast. It sits above my breast augmentation incision. It's not as extreme as a double bubble would be. It looks as if it sits right where the bra was sitting (as the bra was one that fit prior to the implants). I wore it only one day and this happened! What can I do to fix it? My 3 months is still not up yet. I have about 2 weeks to go.

It's a great question. Saline implants do not need to be replaced unless they are ruptured or there is another issue that you are experiencing. If you are not having issues with sagging, scar tissue forming around the implant, and you are happy with your current look then I wouldn't change ...

Thanks for your question - Silicone implant pricing typically costs about $1000 more than saline implants. Most of this cost is the difference in price between silicone implants and saline. The two major manufacturers of implants in the US (Mentor and Allergan) have similar pricing for the...

Add the numbers of ccs in your right and left implants.2. If you have saline implants, multiply the resulting number by .0325 (the weight of...
