Why is my left breast implant vibrating?

Question

My breast Implants are almost 4 years old, never had any problems and I love them, However for the past 3 days my left implant has a funny sensation.... It's like a grumbling vibrating feeling! I have no pain and it looks the same as usual, Does anyone have any ideas on what it could be? Hopefully nothing serious!!

Hello, I would suggest seeing your PS for an examination to help determine the cause of your odd sensations.  They may be able to tell whether there is an obvious change to your implant (rippling, contracture, etc) or if it is more likely to be arising from the muscles or breast tissue.

This description is most commonly used when patients are describing muscle spasm. For peace of mind, it may be time to follow up with your plastic surgeon for a checkup. Best wishes.

Thank you for your question. You may be having some spasm. In person examination required for assessment. Pl consult a board certified PS.

Hi,

Thanks for posting your question. I am happy to try and help you. It is
important to remember that a board certified plastic surgeon will be your best
resource when it comes to an accurate assessment of your situation, and
concerns.

Having said that, you should go see your plastic surgeon. Online consultants
are not the appropriate source of information for you; your plastic surgeon
should be your resource when it comes to postoperative concerns.

Best wishes,

Dr. Michael J. Brown

Hi Sarah, Thank you for sharing your breast sensation issue. More information along with an in person consultation would give us a better idea of what's going on.  It sounds like you could be experiencing muscle spasm after exercise.  Should the feeling persist consider seeing your operative surgeon for an exam. I hope this is helpful.Brian S. Coan, MD, FACS
