Explant/muscle flex deformity. Should I add a lift or not? (Photo)

May 26, 2021
Asked By:Kathy101 in San Francisco, California

Planning my ex-plant, I have saline implants,under muscle for 24 years. I was fine for the first 13 years but then had them replaced and began developing strange autoimmune-like symptoms 6 months later after my replacement. Been very sick the last 9 years with no diagnosis, thinking I have BII. I'm trying to figure out if I should add a lift or not. When I flex the right side has some sort of deformity with lumpy looking tissue. Is this normal and can it be fixed with a lift? Or what can be done
