I got a breast aug 10 weeks ago. 425 and 450 moderate plus over the muscle. I️ was told that the right breast socket was a smaller which is why they did one bigger. I also went over muscle because he said I was set far apart. Now I have bad rippling in the breast with the smaller socket/bigger implant. I also Have some stretch marks in that breast. Both breast still don’t have much feeling especially the nipples. Is there a chance this could go away when it settles? The doc told me..

Answer: Rippling after Breast augmentation There are several factors which can increase the risk of rippling after breast augmentation including:-over the muscle is higher than under-saline has more rippling than silicone-thinner skin/ less Breast tissue shows ripples more than thicker tissuesIf rippling persists, revision surgery is always possible and can make very nice improvement! Please discuss options with your surgeon or another board certified plastic surgeon in your area.

Answer: Rippling The rippling will not go away. You will need another surgery to change planes and put the implant under the muscle or change out to a gel implant the does not have the tendency to ripple.

Answer: One breast rippling - numbness 10 weeks post BA. 425 and 450 moderate plus over the muscle. Will this go away when it settles? Thank you for sharing your question and photographs. Unfortunately due to the thin breast tissues that you started with I do not think the rippling you see will improve with time and will likely only worsen as the tissues stretch and the implants settle. What you are seeing are folds along the edges of the implant. The best option at correction would be to replace the implants underneath your chest muscles so as to thicken the amount of soft tissue covering. Hope this helps.
