Today I noticed I felt more rippling in my gel silicone implants. These ones were done in 2017 in Miami. They seem fine visibly. But I can feel ripples to the touch in my cleavage area and sides of breasts. I am wondering if I should be concerned medically or .. am I ok? They do not hurt. But just am wondering if I should be concerned about feeling ripples in gel gummy silicone implants . Please respond your best w/o saying go to the dr. Thanks a lot.
Answer: Implants Because of the weight of your implants, you have some tissue thinning and stretching which encourages more ripples to be seen and felt. Always wear a good supporting bra. Don't let the girls bounce, or go smaller and get a lift.

Answer: Rippling in breast implants Hello, thank you for your question. Rippling is completely normal, no implant is solid without wrinkling, nor would anyone want that. As we get older more of our natural subcutaneous fat and natural breast tissue decreases over time from everywhere in our body, which may explain why you are now after 6 years feeling it. If it doesn't bother you then most likely just rippling of an implant. We always recommend an in person visit with your plastic surgeon/ family doctor not to be generic in our response but in your best interest to have a physician examine you in person for a better quality response and because they know your medical history. But that was quite funny to read and we appreciate your candidness.

Answer: Rippling Thanks for your question! Even though implants are silicone, they can still ripple. If you have no other concerning symptoms with the rippling, I wouldn't be concerned. Women can lose breast tissue and support as they age, so this can happen. Good luck!

Answer: Rippling question Thanks for your inquiry, even silicone breast implants can ripple. The more cohesive the gel the less, but none the less they can ripple. If you loose weight or the pockets loosen, then the rippling can be more pronounced. The rippling is not dangerous, a true fold in the implant however is something to go see your surgeon about, best of luck.
