Dear Mimi54
You had implants under, then switched them to over now want them under again. In my practice I have seen this quite frequently. The implants can be placed under the muscle but a lot depends on what is found at the time of surgery.
Of course, not having examined you, I can't make a professional opinion. Sometimes, the muscle is thinned out and other times it may be thicker and more difficult to work with due to a previous capsule under the muscle that was not removed. Most importantly, you need to be evaluated by a board certified plastic surgeon and then discuss what you options are for surgery.
Make sure the surgeon has extensive experience in redo breast surgery or revisionary surgery. Sometimes, a plastic surgeon may advise no surgery if he or she feels the risks are greater than the benefits.
I wish you success in whatever decision you make.
