Over or Under the Muscle With 800cc Implants?

Should I get my 800 cc mod+ implants over or under?? I have 500 cc mod+ now but, don't want too much dropping or sagging. I previously had 650 cc hp so I know my pocket will hold it. I'm planning on getting a full lollipop lift with my revision. I wasn't sure if a new pocket would help with perky ness or not. Also I was considering the internal bra if I go with unders. Any suggestions would be great!! Thanks!

Staying with the smaller implant would be a safer bet, as the 800 might not stay put.

Breast Implant Positioning (800 cc Implants)?

Thank you for the question. Unfortunately, it is not possible to give you precise advice without direct examination. You may want to include pictures for additional input. Generally speaking, it would be in your best interests to have breast implants placed in the sub muscular (or dual plane) position. Whether an “internal bra" ( capsulorapphy) will be helpful will depend on the position of the breast implants at this time and the goals you... more

Breast Implants Sagging

This question is fairly common in women who have had large implants. Unfortunately, the pure weight of the implants cannot be supported with breast tissue alone, eventually the implants sag. The bigger the implant, the bigger the sag. It is a misconception that larger implants will "lift" the sagging breast. So at that size, if you want to go bigger, do it, with the full knowledge that they will probably sag some more. Otherwise, go with a smaller size. Hope this helps.... more
