Asked By:inkedandcurvy in North Kingstown, Rhode Island

-Breast augmentation w/ submusc silicone implants 09/2015 -Acquired painful symmastia almost immediately -Removal of implants, repair of symmastia w/galaflex and conservative fat transfer to breasts -Pain never subsided in the sternum area/under the breasts (closest to sternum) even now -Odd line of possibly extra skin underneath hinders me to wear what I want, how can this be fixed and estimate cost to do so (alone and with another fat transfer to breast) -Also the repair itself worked
