I just had my exchange surgery on 11/6 and I noticed today that my left implant makes a sloshing sound when I press on the top part of it. Is this normal?

I have Allergen Inspira Soft Touch silicone implants.

    OnTarget, all implants can slosh (and squeak, gurgle and fart) for the first couple of weeks. It’s just fluid being pushed around between the implant and your chest.

    Thanks VegGal! I should have googled it before posting, and I tried to delete the question but not fast enough!

    I am super glad that sloshing is normal for new implants!

    I'm glad you posted! I had never heard this and just had my exchange last Wednesday. I was quite surprised at the sounds I was hearing when I would stand up or move my arm a certain way!!!! I would think the PS would mention this. :) I haven't heard it in 2 days, so maybe I'm past that now.

    Thanks Hodgepodge- mine is making all sorts of sloshing and farting noises, so VegGal was right on with this! My exchange was two weeks ago, and the noises are going strong!
