I still have the issue with the “bubble” on my left breast. Some days aren’t as bad as others, but it literally feels like someone has their finger poking my nipple all day long!!! I need to make an appointment and see what my options are... it drives me crazy! Other than that, I am happy with them.

Just curious what ever happened to the air bubble under your nipple? Did it ever resolve? How did your breasts settle? Would love to see an update w/pics if possible? Hope all is well. Thanks for sharing your journey. Take care. ❤️

3weeks... have a problem

After getting my stitches out and started doing my massages, I noticed what felt like a bubble in my left breast right under my nipple. I can actually feel and see (assuming the implant) poking through my areola. It feels like someone is poking me in the nipple from the inside out. I posted pictures of the “bumps” in my areola.. kind of hard to see, but I can feel them for sure. Need to call the doc to see what the deal is. I have thin skin and no breast tissue, however, I didn’t have this problem with my saline implants, and the right side feels fine. UGH! I can’t live with the feeling of someone‘s finger poking me in the nipple. Not sure what a fix would be...

could this be just internal dissolvable stitches?

2 week -Stitches out!

Just got my stitches removed today... feels so good to be able to scratch my boobs!! My skin is really dry so I told my hubby he can slather some lotion on me. I have no pain... my left nipple is really sensitive though. I was given exercises for my breasts to make/keep them soft. My next appointment is in 3 months. My left breast has “relaxed” more than my right. Overall I am happy. I can push my boobs together and get cleavage... something I couldn’t do with my old pair. Since my previous implants were over the muscle, it feels kind of weird sometimes when I move with them being under the muscle. Does that go away or do you always feel it?

Looking great! Yes the weirdness will be less noticeable with time. It just takes some time to adjust to them. Happy healing!
