I'm considering changing from 'overs' to a submuscular placement. I'm only 4 weeks post op and know its early days - my PS suggested overs as I like to work out - however I'm not sure I have enough tissue to cover them for a natural result (310cc, 105lbs, originally 34a) Does everyone with submuscular implants get muscle flex distortion or does it depend on how the muscle is cut? if you do get it does it improve in time? what will happen to the pockets i have from my over the muscle placement?
