Guest guest Posted September 29, 2005 Report Share Posted September 29, 2005 --- Are you talking about the rippling feeling on the sides and underneath the breast? I had it on my left side and underneath both of my breasts. My doctor told me it was because i was so thin in that area that you could feel the implant and its ripples. Even though that did make since i still didnt think you should feel ripples if the implant was filled enough, right, but he was an idiot and knew he would just fill me full of BS anyway. I just dealt with the rippling since you couldnt see if unless i was bent over and then it was really bad. I think it will happen to most really petite women, but then again it could have to do with how much they fill the implant- overfilled or not.

Guest guest Posted September 29, 2005 Report Share Posted September 29, 2005 I don't know...I guess I should have asked. Hopefully she will come on here and ask. I think it is outrageous her surgeon charged her to go in and fix it - and then made it worse. > > Does anyone know about 'dimpling' with saline implants.

Guest guest Posted September 29, 2005 Report Share Posted September 29, 2005 I could feel some rippling in mine too. Mine were 450 cc overfilled to 500 cc. I hated how it felt, but it wasn't that noticeable, at least I didn't think so. After I got sick, I didn't care! I just wanted them out!

Guest guest Posted September 29, 2005 Report Share Posted September 29, 2005 Hi Patty, I sure hope that Kathy logs on. I gave her this url. I sure know what you mean by not caring when you get sick. By the time I had my explant, I didn't care WHAT I looked like. I just wanted them OUT. > > > > Does anyone know about 'dimpling' with saline implants.
