2016 I had a revision surgery to remove my 500cc implants that were both ruptured. I had been going through some health issues with hashimoto’s and thought this could be part of the problem. The 1st surgeon replaced them with HP 400cc silicone implants but the pockets didn’t hold. 2nd surgeon used scaffolding and LP 360cc implants. Now I feel flat and too wide. No shape left at all. Uneven, flattened, really wide, and they still hurt on sides.
