I had a breast augmentation 9 months ago and my old crease still shows. Mine are 490 gummies under the muscle. My doctor said there was nothing that can be done. I originally wanted 525 cc but was told after surgery that he couldn't even fit 500 cc when he used the sizer. When I hold up my arm it looks like my breast and implant are separate.
