I am 3 weeks and five days post op I got 350cc high profile round textured silicone implants over the muscle. My doctor is having me do some massage on the implants. As I was massaging this morning I noticed in the mirror what looked like strings under my boobs and I have been a little extra sore on my ribs beneath my boobs.
