Hi MarciaJoy! I hadn't heard from you from a while. I just realized we weren't on the same team! I'm still figuring out how each of the 3 forums I am on work! I will join your team toute suite!

Sorry to hear about your implants. I wear 2 prosthesis .... an Active named Nadia (Comanici) & a swimmer named Dory. Currently I'm dealing with my left side of my bra riding up & cutting into me. I have a couple of ideas that should help.

I know how annoyed I am when my bra digs in. At least I can take my bra off. Your situation sounds frustrating. Does anything help? I would try a cool gel pack. Putting one in a t-shirt makes it more comfortable.

Have you met with your plastic surgeon to see what s/he thinks? Good luck with this! I hope you have a Happy Easter! 🐰

I originally had 550 cc implants that were uncomfortable. I swapped them out for 375 cc and have no issues whatsoever. Good luck to you!!! I am so so happy with my much smaller implants. And my insurance covered the whole thing. They said they will always cover anything I need forever!!! Wow!!!

Getting mine out for the second time and last in May not worth the discomfort.

My implant felt like it was cutting into me or maybe it was the acellular dermal matrix. My plastic surgeon removed my implant and I think she said trimmed off a piece at the top. It feels better now. Sorry you are having that problem. I feel like they don't have custom sizes so it might be too big and digs into your skin.
