I had a double mastectomy scars through the middle of my chest. I had expander exchanged for implant about 6 weeks ago. My right side looks dented in the center like the scar is stuck to the implant. It was not there yesterday. Can adhesions happen that fast and is there anything I can do? I can't get an appt with my ps until November 2

    Sorry to hear about your problems. Can you move the skin over/against the implant? Is it stuck there? That's what it sounds like. I had that happens after I had an infection after taking out the TE, when I was going to do fat grafting instead.

    Have you tried Bromelain? It is helpful in breaking up protein rich things like adhesions according to my Naturopath friend. Massage to the area you are concerned with is also supposed to be helpful.

    I hope you find something that helps soon.
