Asked By:dreamer4life90 in Winters, Texas

I have had my implants done over a year ago and the dr recommended 300 cc moderate profile. The dr advised these would sit nice and high on my rib cage and create good cleavage and roundness like I was seeking.. It’s been a year and the implants are 5 inches apart. Is this normal? I returned to the dr and he said it’s my rib cages fault and there is nothing that can be done.
