Hi girls, i had my opp in sept and have a few complications but to start of I think the gap between my implants is too wide!..... Im seeing my surgeon soon but would love to know if he will be able to fix this! Do any of you have any experience with this?!!

Also, one of my implants has attached itself to my muscle which makes my breasts look different sizes!! i had revesion surgery 3 weeks ago but it unfortunately didnt fix the problem!...... any experience girlys?!!

Thanks xx

Hi 30e first of all welcome to the forum and congratulations on your first post gap to wide!! + implant attchd to muscle!! 536278

I'm sorry to hear that you were twice unhappy with the result, but don't give up! I can't answer from experience because I'm still PRE BA, however I read somewhere that the "natural shape" is most likely to remain even after surgery. You can somehow correct some inperfections, but the natural shape and the rib cage play a big role in the end result. Before you did the BA, did you have a wide gap?

by 30e 14th February 2012, 2:16 pm

thanks both of you! :)

yes, i suppose i did but i had read somewhere that the surgeon can make the pockets closer together......i know it has to do with the position of your nipples so my question then is, if he was to use wider implants, would this not componsate for gap?!

I think if the implants are too wide for your body you might end up with uniboob! Can you sqeeze them into a cleavage with a push up bra?xxx

by 30e 14th February 2012, 2:34 pm

uniboob haha!! :-D

and yeah, i can push them together but i wanted them to sit together without having to do that!! :-/

i will put pics up when i work that out and you can have a look.... :)

Mine have quite a gap without a bra ,but they have always been like that even when small!! Look forward to your piccies !xxx

by 30e 14th February 2012, 2:41 pm

what size are you now peggysue?! - maybe im wearing the wrong kind of bras!

.....if you are in a bikini, a halterneck one.....do they touch eachother? mine dont and id love them too!

by misf1 14th February 2012, 2:57 pm

You will need to explain to your surgeon you want the fake look. You want them to sit together without a bra. Wider implants can help, either bigger cc with more width or a lower profile implant. It will also depend on your anatomy, so if your chest naturally slants you can end up with a lot of side boob and still have a gap. Your surgeon should explain the symastia risk with trying to achieve this look.

Mine had a big gap before my op and still have a big gap now but I can push them together with a bra.

by starjem 14th February 2012, 3:43 pm

Me too.They never touched before. I've always had about a a finger width space and now they're done, that space is still the same.

However when wearing my sports bra that gap is gone, so I imagine when wearing a normal bra I would have maximum cleaverage.

I went for a natural look so its fine with me.

After having surgery did your PS tell you to wear a bra and a band 4-6wks post op. This should help with setting your implants in place and close together while healing.

by 30e 14th February 2012, 4:25 pm

I have a gap of about 4 fingers!.....and my surgeon makes us wear an underwired bra and doesnt use tape at all to push them down or into position!...

i do think wider implants would of been better. I dont mean that i wanted them to touch but i definately wanted them to sit on front of my chest rather them slightly to the sides!

by starjem 14th February 2012, 5:33 pm

Ok, I see what you mean. That is a bit of a gap and I would imagine they are facing out to the side rather than out in front of you.

How long ago did you have your BA done. If its still fresh and you havnt entirely healed, you could change that gap to a two finger space, by banding and pushing them together for the duration of your healing.

Better still, have a chat with your PS and tell him your not happy about that gap.

by XxTracyxX 14th February 2012, 5:54 pm

I had a big gap before surgery and still have a big gap now - I'm not sure if they will push together in a push up bra as I'm not allowed to wear one for another 6 months,

I can however squeeze them together and they look like they will make a much better cleavage than what I had before!

by 30e 15th February 2012, 9:21 am

im seeing my surgeon in 2 weeks and i really hope he can change the position of them!

i had my BA on 30th September so they are pretty much healed i think xx

by xaxa 15th February 2012, 12:42 pm

Hi 30e, what you said is right. A surgeon can indeed create pockets that are closer to eachoter to close the gap slightly. Also, as misf explained, if you have moderate or low profile implants (with a larger base) you are more likely to get a cleavage. Good luck and let us know how it goes! gap to wide!! + implant attchd to muscle!! 571992

I cant wait to go see him, i wish it was today so i could get it over with! I hope i dont go soft and not stand up to what i want to achieve! :-/

Do any of you know if it is hard to have your surgeon change your implants to different ones without any charge?? gap to wide!! + implant attchd to muscle!! 67188

Hi 30e, I remember changing my mind about anatomicals and wanted round implants instead, and the surgeon didn't have a problem with that. Do you want to change size, shape or brand? Whatever it is, you should always let him know after all you're going to pay him lots of money. You're not going to be the first and not even the last to change your mind, they are used to these things gap to wide!! + implant attchd to muscle!! 571992

I havnt been in your situation but if your unhappy with the shape I would deffo tell him when you see him. But I do think there will be a charge as there is nothing medically wrong with them except your just unhappy. It maybe that the cost is reduced but I would speak to him. Xxx
