Can a breast implant move after 3 years?

It's very uncommon, but I have seen this happen.  Be sure to discuss with your own surgeon about how this applies to you, and whether they have any special concerns in your case.

Yes, it is unusual but it can happen. Regardless, the fact that you are experiencing sudden pain after 3 years means that something is going on which must be assessed in person. Schedule an appointment to see your surgeon as soon as possible. Best, Dr. Nazarian

Implants of the breast can shift  years after implantation. Best to see your plastic surgeon to determine if he could help. Sometimes pectorals muscle spasm can be treated with botox. Warm bath, Ascriptin and laying off chest muscle exercises would be my first course of action. Good luck….

The situation you are describing sounds like a pulled muscle or tear. It is also possible to disrupt the capsule in which the breast implant sits. In an extreme case, the position of the implant can change.This would be a very rare exception (one I have never seen) and though possible, would be unlikely with routine exercise.

Occasionally women decide they no longer want breast implants. They can be easily removed with local anesthesia in most circumstances.

Hello,It sounds like you are describing a pulled muscle or tissue surrounding the implant. Typically that type of issue will resolve with rest. If you have ongoing concerns or notice a change in shape/feel of implant,  get in touch with your Plastic Surgeon. All the best

Likely a muscle strain which can cause irritation around the implant.An exam with your plastic surgeon is recommended.

Sorry to hear about your pain. It is unusual to have a sudden pain without worrying about it. I'm not sure about the exact cause but muscle pulls or strains may not be unheard of. Typically, I would recommend normal sprain treatment like ice and tylenol. Usually this will resolve over 7-10 days although it may get intially worse during the first 24-48 hours like any bruise. Watch for signs of worsening inflammation or possible bleeding such as increased redness, swelling, bruisng, fever, etc. Call your board certified plastic surgeon if you have any worsening symptoms. I'm still a little confused if you had your implants over or under the muscle because you say they are "on the muscle." If implants are placed under the muscle, repeated muscle contraction may push the implants outwards slowly over time. Yours sounds like it happened suddenly which is a different situation.For an example of a body builder who had correction of implants falling to the outside, see the video link below. 

Hello dear, thanks for your question and provided information as well... I recommend you to visit your surgeon for a check up and also have your x-rays done, because you need to see if you have something else than discomfort, please get to your doctor and check everyting

It is possible, particularly with weight lifters/ body builders. However, the complaint is a change in breast contour, not pain.  It is much more likely that the pain is of musculoskeletal origin. If this persists, a visit to your primary physician will probably be your best bet.All the best.
