When I lay flat there is a clear demarcation between my breast bone and the implant. When standing it almost looks as if one side of the implant is flat on the inside, making a “D” shape.

Answer: Yes, your implant pockets are too large and a capsulorrhaphy is needed to correct this. I prefer to avoid the artificial materials out there but this procedure requires that you wear a bra 24/7 for 6-8 weeks post-op. Its still unpredictable and recurrences can occur. If having to go back (round 3), use of ADM's and scaffolding would then be done.

Answer: The flatness is normal The flatness is normal when you lay down as the implants would naturally fall to the armpit sides.It seems you do not have enough breast tissue which explains why the ridges of your implants are visible. The dimple that is clearly visible in your stand up position is due to your surgeon not cutting enough muscle. I would recommend you have a consultation with your surgeon regarding revision and also choose a wider implant next time.
