2nd RUPTURE with IDEAL IMPLANT

Has anyone else experienced such horrible luck like I have with these IDEAL? 1st rupture happened 8 mos ago, got my revision 5 months ago NOW I am on my SECOND rupture!!! I'm not sure what to do... Leaning towards just being done with these dumb water bags.. If anyone else has experienced something similar please reach out to me.

Update from having unders to overs

Hi
Note: Dr. Placik did my unders. Dr. Leahy did my revision to overs
In the pictures I have posted (exception of the bra) are retaken from when I posted them with my unders, so you all can see a huge difference it is to go over the muscle on a small petite gal. I only went 45cc higher then have unders at 340cc. Currently I have 385cc over the muscle.
Feeling of under the muscle breast implants with ideal at 340cc. They were filled to the max and felt like HARD BALLS. I actually started hating them after I had a rupture on the Left side. They also didn’t really move t all, and my right breast was uncomfortable under the muscle and it was hugging my armpit. Also, cold not achieve any cleavage and I was still self conscious about having boobs. I also had a very narrow look to my breasts.
Lessing in disguise you could say for having a rupture.
Over feelings; they feel like natural boobs! I have ideals overs at 385cc feels like silicone moves like natural breast tissue which I’m totally not used to! Most importantly I have CLEAVAGE and a rounder look!!! Very happy with my decision to go over! My confidence is much better because well I have boobs that feel like real boobs and look like real/fake boobs and cleavage!!!!! :-)
Lessons learned: my original plan was to go over the muscle prior to my first breast augmentation! I let everyone get to me about not going over the muscle ( other reviews, doctors because I’m too petite). Meaning I should’ve just listened to my gut in the first place and gone over! Blahhh!!!!!!!!
I will be continuing to update on my review with Dr. Leahy which you can find on my main page where it shows my other reviews.

New boobs in ace bandage lol

All swollen, took one Tylenol last night followed by a nerve blocker and a Valium but drank too much coffee to actually fall asleep fast. Around 1pm I get to take the ace bandage off. It’s weird that you have to through a drop and fluff when it’s over the muscle lol. Pain in fine laying down but when I stand I look like a jump back because gravity pushing down doesn’t feel good. I will be taking 3 short walks today to get things moving. Can’t wait to see my doctor tmrw!

The only thing I wish he had done differently is chose the size and profile on what he thought looked best on me. Other then that he's down to earth listens to your concerns, and is a pretty awesome PS!
