Over the last couple weeks I’ve noticed a weird skin flap in my cleavage I have gained weight will this go away?
Answer: Cleavage fold I would need to see you in person but from the photo I think that maybe gravity is pulling your large breasts down and this is simply a fold where the skin is being pulled. If it disappears when you lay on your back I think that is probably what it is. Please get an in person evaluation. Good luck.

Answer: BA results Dear RebeccaGlacier,I understand your concern. However, without a proper assessment it would be difficult to determine what is wrong. It is best that you visit your plastic surgeon for further assessment. Only after thorough examination you can get proper recommendations and advice.Daniel Barrett, MD

Answer: Breast Augmentation Hi, based upon the photos provided, there appears to be skin in the medial/cleavage area that is folded. However, without knowing your surgical history and performing an exam, it would be difficult to exactly say what is occurring, and more importantly, suggest any correction or expected changes with weight gain. I would recommend following up with your plastic surgery for evaluation. Good luck.

Answer: What is this weird cleavage? There are visible skin folds between the breasts. Tissue should be left there to avoid symmastia. Further evaluation by your surgeon is recommended.

Answer: Skin fold This is occurring because your implants are likely below the muscle and do not go as far medially (towards the midline) as your breasts do. While this can be corrected with surgery, there is some risk of the pockets becoming so close together that they actually merge in the center, a condition caused synmastia. Another option would be some fat grafting into the space to fill out the skin more fully. Consultation with your plastic surgeon will better inform you of your options.
