I had a BA in May 2016 and I am already experiencing rippling and soft spots that I can only compare to the feeling of a bruise on a apple. The rippling is in both breasts, but more extreme on the right side and the soft spots are only on the right as well, above my nipple and on the right "side boob". What could cause this? Is there anything I can do to better the situation?

Chloe. I understand your concern, but way too early in your postop course to worry. You need to heal and your body adjust to your implants. Keep in touch with your surgeon, good luck!
Please don't worry, muscle contractions on and off for up to six weeks after breast augmentation surgery when the implants are placed under the muscle is to be expected. It is also normal for your muscles to clench down when you stretch when you sleep and will not cause any...
Thank you for your question.
Please see several board certified plastic surgeons that can examine and speak with you about your goals. They will measure your chest dimensions, amount of breast tissue, and nipple position among other things to develop a plan for your augmentation....
