I had my first BA 3 years ago. I had 485cc under the muscle. I had issues with one breast very early on. My implant fell into my armpit. I ended having a second BA about 18 months later. My second set of implants are 535cc. I had mesh added as well as having the capsule adhered to my ribs. Very shorty after surgery, by breast was back to my armpit. Over a year later, my other implant has fallen to my sternum. Is there any hope for future implants or should i give up and have them removed?
