Fairly common
Hi Shelby,
I haven't had it happen but I've read about women who have had that happen. The migration to the armpits or the implants 'bottoming' out are the most common reasons for revisions.
If it happens early out from your exchange surgery, it can be helped by wearing bras that keep the foobs 'front and center.' Wearing a good bra soon after the exchange can help the capsule that forms around the implant stay where your PS put the implants.
Since it's been a year, I think your option may be limited to a revision surgery ... a PS will go in and secure the pocket laterally with sutures. Consult with your PS or go and get 2,3,or 4th opinion. I'm sorry this has happened to you.It's not uncommon. But it can be fixed with surgery.
Best wishes to you.0 -

THANK YOU I HAVE MADE AN APPOINTMENT WITH MY PS AND I MAY GET ANOTHER OPINION BECAUSE HE TOLD ME THAT I DIDNT HAVE TO WEAR A BRA AT ALL AND I DIDNT FOR MONTHS.
THANKS AGAIN
