Massaging a rippling implant? (Photo)

Hello,It is best to have your Plastic Surgeon personally give you this instruction and demonstrate for you so that you understand fully. All the best 

Hello, each surgeon has unique recommendations regarding implant massage and there is no universally accepted protocol.  Presumably your surgeon find this to be helpful.  If you do not find that it is making a difference you could followup with them to discuss other options.

Your #boardcertified plastic surgeon may require you to move or #massage the #implants within the #breast pockets during the postoperative period. Textured
implants do not require breast massage. Massage also helps to heal sensory nerve pain.

Unsure if massage will help but rippling can be an unfortunate consequence of using saline implants. Time will tell if the rippling improves but if it doesn't, you may have to undergo a revision with smaller, under the muscle silicone implants. Good luck!

An examination in person would really be needed to say something specific in your case. The creases that you see may be due to the implant, or possibly to the muscle. In both cases, massage will probably do little to get an improvement, but time may help. As your surgeon said, if there is no improvement over the first six months, a revision will be indicated.

The tissues are thin in the inner side of your breast. I suspect the ripple is an area where your muscle and thin tissue come together.( an exam would help me understand) Massage is helpful early after BA, but I question the benefit now for this issue.
