Hi, I had implants under the muscle ( armpit incision) and had them replace with silicone)but the new incision was around the nipples. Now they are 2 years old 220cc and I want them removed. I had 2 consultations with two docs. 1 refused to remove them in the old incisions. One after insisting he finally agrees to do it. Both really insisted to have the incision under the breast crease?
