One Is Deformed!!! Has anybody else had this happen?

$11,002
I just had an ultrasound today, and am nervous about my results! The left side is completely deformed! I'm trying to massage with a warm washcloth, but the lump is so hard & it doesn't seem to be doing anything! I would like to know if this has happened to others & what did they do about it?

Hi, sorry to hear your lump hasn’t improved. Massaging it will help loosen it up each time it is massaged; 3 X a day would help best and warm compresses. Cupping may help as well.
I've been trying, but it's ROCK hard!
Dr Urzola said not to massage it, that it would disappear on it's own. It is disappearing, but my breast still looks deformed. I've lost most of the FT, I'm an A cup now.
I'm not happy with this job at all & would like to do another FT, but I have very little fat to harvest, so not sure if it would be worth it for me :(
How are you? I"m so sorry about this and hope you've found a solution.
Hi, I know this post is from a long time ago! Is the lump gone now or is it giving you problems at all?
Totally gone. Dr. Urzola assured me it would disappear as well.
would you recommend him as a surgeon? How are you happy with his work 4 yrs later? Is FT waste of money? I also have very little fat but am considering with him at explant so I am not left flat
I am not happy with him. He ruined my thighs and left dents and cellulite. I had great legs before.

Hard Lump!!!!

I've just discovered a golf-ball sized hard lump in one side!!! I was told to get a U/S & send the results to the Dr. I've read about calcification since, has anyone had this happen? What were your results?

Hope you’re okay!
I have had explant and fat transfer- I was told to massage breast with warm wash cloth to keep fat from clumping- -Doing this helped
They didn't tell me anything about this! I didn't even know this was a possibility! I'm going to try that, but I think it may be too late!
its not too late I was at my doc last week -- and he told me to do it still -my surgery was 6 months ago-
Did you get lumps & did they soften up?
I read about another women who found a lump and it was the muscle
I had an U/S & Dr Urzola said it was fat necrosis. It is disappearing slowly, but the breast still looks deformed. I'm wondering how the muscle could make a lump!

I did lose some fat, & the shape is still a bit wonky. I think I'm a B at this point, but not sized as yet. I have heard that they will "fluff up" a bit, but asked the Dr about it & he says "No"! One nipple is considerably smaller than the other which has me upset, but doesn't show too well in the pics. Has anybody else had that happen and have them equal out in size? Can I ask still expect to 'fluff up' as so many people have mentioned?

He showed me the video of the operation, & the big wrinkle in both implants from the encapsulation! He actually showed taking the capsules off the implants in the video. The liquid inside them is quite yellow.
Hi,
the picture is not very clear, but from what i can tell they look great
Did he also give you an uplift? I see reduction scars around nipples and down, then underneath
