Why does one implant move with muscle flexing?

June 9, 2015
Asked By:amyrn in Little Falls, NY

I have 750 cc mod plus silicone under muscle implants. The implant that I can see and feel moving is not on my dominant side. It's not a major deformity but noticeable. Is there something I have done wrong in the healing process to cause this? Is there something I can do to decrease this? I am 3 mo post.
