Can the implant fall out of place and move near/on top of the heart?

BellaB24Jan 28, 2022
I had my breasts done almost 4 years ago. Subglandular with silicone implants. I was told the skin on my left breast is thin and so id feel the implant more on that side. When I lean forward it feels slightly bumpy on the left not on the right I can’t feel it. I’ve been getting pain and feeling of a trapped nerve in my left breast underneath. Can the implant fall out of place and can it move near or on top of the heart? I’m trying to see why I am getting this pain. I had a baby 15 months ago

If the pocket was tightened, it may have been tightened at little too much. Otherwise, you may have a capsule which could be treated with external ultrasound and Accolate before trying surgery. I would give that a try first.

Good morning, It's not an easy easy fix, but it is fixable- you do have some bottoming out, which takes away your cleavage and nice upper pole fullness. I correct this with the Original Internal Bra, my strong permanent internal suturing technique, which will also improve your upper pole...
