WORTH IT$7,450
all is well, have lost weight after foreign travel and keeping it off...can feel the texture in the plants more now, kinda like veins in my breasts or something. Have a seam that can be felt and sticks out a bit on left breast, Dr said he could take fat and inject it at the site, but I'm DONE with procedures! Finally feeling awesome! Love clothes shopping now and dressing sexier and dresses! I never used to wear dresses, now I love them!

theres always something...
so, I've finally started to feel good again, healed from the revision, accepting of my decisions, back into my regular workouts, starting to feel like my "old self" again, and then this week I start to notice something odd on my left side (yup the revision side) ....not only can I feel the texture of the implant (which is why one Dr, said he only uses smooth) but the seam is very obvious. It feels pretty creepy, the worst part is my husband noticed it right away last time we were intimate, he said it felt weird and kinda grossed him out (and musta stopped his mood at that point!)
I feel like I just can't get a break!
I'm never doing surgery for this again (unless it's because I have to remove them for some drastic reason), makes me wonder if it really is worth it after all? I think my biggest regret is that I didn't do round with insertion at the areola.

Anyone else feel their implant seam? If so, has it ever shifted on its own, or is this how it's gonna be from now on?

Hi there! I have similar implants to - Sientra HP Round Based 370CC Shaped - and I have a little bit of a stubborn left side too. I feel it dropping okay (I just had my 2 week post op yesterday) but is more swollen and a tad higher than my right. My right is healing perfectly. PS didn't seem concerned though. However one concern that I did bring up to him was that I could really feel the implant on my left side. Sometimes depending on how I was laying I could run my fingers along it and feel the creases in the implant. He said it was normal - I had very little breast tissue to begin with and depending on how much is on each side and where the implant is placed, you will be able to feel the implant under the skin. Nothing you can do about it - it is more common in thin women. As you heal more on that side more tissue should develop around it which may make it better, but there's no way to tell. Yours look great though!!!

I felt my implant edges for a long time after surgery. I don't anymore even if Im really pressing and feeling for it. I think it just takes time for your muscle to fully relax. Do you feel the seam only on the revision side or both sides?

I only feel the implant seam on one side (the revision side) the right side has always been what I had expected the results to be like. Smokey5 thanks for your encouragement, you've hung in there with me for quite a while and I see you are almost one year with your implants too! Mine is mid-May and I hope that, like you and smarie5 said that its just a muscle to relax or scar tissue to help hide it. Its easier to keep my hopes up with positive comments from supportive women joining me in this journey! Thanx

Time to wait and see I guess...I emailed the Dr., he said he can't really comment without an exam and I just don't have time to go in right now...I'll see him in June and see what he says.
