    I had TE's, then pre-pec implants. I recently had fat grafting, one of my implants switched out, and capsulectomies on both sides to loosen up my capsules which were too tight.

    I have a weird question about flexing- when I flex my pecs, my implants move upwards at least an inch. Like a body builder, I can make them "dance". Neat party trick I guess...but is that normal?

    I do have extremely tight fascia, I'm not sure if that is related in some way. I guess I expected that pre-pec implants would be more independent from my muscle movement, although I'm sure it is the skin or something causing the movement. They move up and down a lot with my skin movement when I lift my arms also.

    OnTarget - not relevant since I have under the muscle implants, but I can do that too. I hesitate to wear tight tops to exercise class for just that reason.

    MinusTwo- Yeah, I figured that under the muscle ones would do that, but I was a bit surprised to see pre-pecs do it!
