Plastic Surgery Q and A

Question: I recently lost weight and now I can feel the edge of the breast implants. Is there anything Dr. Corbin would recommend?
Answer: Implant rippling can be seen in some thin patients because there is less breast tissue to cover over the breast implant. Some solutions for patients is to switch from saline breast implants to silicone implants as they ripple less. Or another option may be to use alloderm to put between the skin and the breast implant. In some patients fat injections are used to restore fat into the breast and help with rippling.
