Skin Stretching Back Into Shape
Posted: 05-18-05 13:23pm

I'm a male who recently had chest augmentation on one side to correct a congenital anamoly. He inserted the custom implant underneath my right armpit. The implant looks great, very naturaly. Since the implant has been inserted I have had tons of flexibility problems and feel a pulling and tightness on my shoulder because the skin doesn't lay flat against the armpit joint anymore. My doctor says that with stretching the flexibility will be regained and the skin stretched back in about 6 months to a year. He says that he sees this all the time with armtuck patients. Has anyone else had this type of problem?
