I Think I Can Feel my Breast Implant at the Bottom of my Boob Just Below my Incision?

Yes, it is possible that you are feeling the breast implant at the base of the breasts. This area, as well as the lateral (outside) breasts are the areas where women are most likely to feel or see the breast implants.  This occurs because there is little to no muscle or soft tissue coverage in these areas.

 Of course, your plastic surgeon will be in a better position to advise you precisely.  Hopefully, the breast implants will remain in relatively good position and you will be pleased with the long-term outcome of the procedure performed.

Best wishes.

Thanks for your question.  It is common for women to feel their implants toward the bottom or outer sides of their breasts.  This is simply because there is not much muscle or tissue coverage in that area so there is a chance you can feel or see the edge of the implant.  If the rippling is visible, follow up with your surgeon and he/she can show you what you are actually feeling and also go over options such as fat grafting to try to camouflage the rippling.  Best of luck!

   Implant folds can be felt at the inferior portion of the breast.  In a thin patient with little breast tissue, the folds may be palpable at many areas on the breast.
