Do I have lateral implant displacement? (Photos)

March 22, 2019
Asked By:cristina.93. in London, GB

I am post 6 months op and I had 250cc overs, over the past 6 months my implants are moving a lot more than what they did. It feels like the pocket is too big and when I lay down they seem to move very close to my armpit. I am aware with natural gravity that the implant would shift slightly however is this lateral implant displacement?
