What you are describing relates to a concavity in your rib cage from the pressure of the implants. The implant pushes out on the breast tissue and skin, which gives the augmentation, but the tissue also pushes back against the implant, which puts pressure on the chest, leading to some re-absorption of the cartilage and bone of the ribcage underneath. This can leave implant shaped dents and is not something that will likely resolve on its own over time.
