Had pec implants put in after some lipo. I never had good pecs to start with so I thought might as well do it, thinks it would look great and boost my self esteem. 1 week after the procedure I was in so much pain. I couldn’t put my arms down becaus the implants were pushing against my armpits. The surgeon said I would have to go back into surgery and he would shave off part of the implants. Fine. Went and did that. After I still felt the implants were not right. Still hurt in my arm pits and the bottom of the implants were above my nipples. He said everything was fine and they will drop so the nipple is placed in the right spot over time. Fast forward 2.5 years later....I’m still in pain and these didn’t drop so my nipples are about an inch below the implants. I’m going next month to have them removed. Can’t stress how horrible this experience has been.

Funny that the surgeon who performed my surgery is advertising right below my review. David Shifrin, MD was my surgeon. Nice guy but terrible results.

Did you consider to make fat transfer instead of implants? It seems that you have common complication now
