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?
