Answer: Symmastia Dear Genius233157, symmastia is a rare breast condition that occurs when soft web-like breast tissue pulls breast implants towards each other, until the breasts meet uncomfortably at the center of the chest near the sternum (the body’s midline point). Given this abnormal union, symmastia is known by many other names, including breadloafing, kissing breast implants, and the uniboob.Unfortunately, this condition causes the surrounding skin and pectoral muscles to literally lift off the breast bone as the implants are pulled together. This consequently causes pain and discomfort, as well as obvious distortion of the breasts, which can only be disguised with clothing that does not show cleavage.

Answer: Can releasing of internal muscle fibers between the breast cause uniboob? Thank you for sharing your question. Yes, if the muscle fibers running along the breast bone are fully released, it is a risk for the development of a uniboob.
