Why is my implant distorted when I use my muscles? (photos)

Asked By:Hopefulforremedy in Florida, NY

1 year ago replaced saline with 421cc silicone. Right implant looks like it's sliding tward armpit when standing at rest, both look cut in half when I flex muscle. I'm active (boxing), but don't lift heavy weights. Both also rippling. What is best treatment? I now feel uncomfortable with original doctor and don't think I want him to attempt fixing it. Didn't have these problems w/ first Dr. & implants. Is this something that I need to see a specialist for? Do I bring it up with original doctor?
