Is It OK That I Can Feel my Silicone Implants Touching my Ribs?

If your breast implants were placed under the muscle then they are in fact resting on your ribs which are below the muscle.  That is how it is in every case where the implants are submuscular.  At 2 months many patients still have an awareness of the implants and may have different feelings and are still in the getting used to the implants time frame.  I believe much of this will go away as a bit more times passes, however, a small number of patients continue to have different feelings and sensations.  There may not be a reason or definite cause.

Thank you for the question and best of luck.

Thank you for the question.

Your description of feeling the breast implants touch the rib cage is anatomically correct given the placement of sub muscular (or dual plane) breast implants. Is it likely that  you will gradually adapt and the sensation will not be bothersome. For specific and more precise guidance please follow up with your plastic surgeon.

Best wishes.

It is very possible that you feel the implants rubbing against your ribs.  It osunds like fromyour description that the implants were placed submuscularly.  This sensation may or may not improve over time.
