Muscle reattachment options after breast implant removal? (Photo)

Asked By:Summer1118 in Seattle, Washington

Implants for 4 months and then had them removed. It has been 6 months and I have animation deformity. My PS said he reattached the muscle but from his notes it looks like he just put a couple of sutures in. What are my options for muscle repair and how successful does it tend to be? Are there significant risks with muscle reattachment?
