Breasts rippling after 3 procedures. Are there implants that don't ripple?

Question

Hi I have had breast surgery 3 times and unfortunately a previous surgeon removed a lot of my muscle , so I don’t have enough coverage over my implants and I get bad rippling, I don’t have any body fat to transfer, can anyone help me with a solution, I am so depressed about this happening again . Is there implants that don’t ripple or mesh a option ?

Dear Gentle201158,
I understand your concern. However, without a proper assessment, it would be difficult to determine what went wrong. It is best that you visit your plastic surgeon for further assessment or ask for a second opinion. Only after a thorough examination, you can get proper recommendations and advice.

Rippling is from lack of tissue to cover the implants. Your doctor could add dermal grafts like Alloderm, to help give more thickness and coverage.
