Asked By:Yay for me in Texas, TX

1.5yr PO. I have window shading or animation deformity? When I flex it gets worse, is this animation deformity or window shading? is it same thing? I consulted with a surgeon who said that my implants are too narrow for my frame (420/400 UHP) and that the muscle had adhered to the capsule, is this the same as window shading/animation deformity? he suggested putting lower profile implants that are wider with higher cc's to bring my breasts closer together and correct the issue. Thoughts?
