Asked By:faffy1936 in Scotland, United Kingdom

Hi, I have had my implants in for over 5 years now, and I haven't always been happy with them. Before my procedure, we discussed everything in a lot of detail, but concluded that I would let my doctor decide weither to go under the muscle or over. Now looking back I really wish I went against that idea, and pushed for over the muscle implants. My breasts now feel like they have been pushed downwards, feel uncomfortable and look unnatural. Can I have another procedure done after this?
