Asked By:Anon05821 in Florida, FL

I’m almost 7 weeks post submuscular breast augmentation. I first noticed this when in spin class with my arms forward- I get like individual stripes of muscle across my chest that contract with my pec contracts, most noticeable under my one collar bone. It’s almost like flashing strips. What is this and will it go away eventually?
