Asked By:Independent39200 in Scotland, United Kingdom

I had Mentor implants 3 years ago under the muscle. No problems so far. I am a fitness instructor and do press ups and pull ups but no direct chest muscles. Two days ago I noticed these lines appear when I push my boobs up. Never had them before. No pain but If you feel the ridges they are tough under the skin. Please can someone help me to figure out what they are.
