I had a great experience with my implants and my surgeon last year. So happy I decided to go for it! I decided when I was 24 that I wanted to get implants; I was very flat chested and didn't want to go back on stage to compete in bodybuilding until I had something up top so I could look better proportioned. I decided to have the implants placed underneath the muscle and I am very glad I did. I don't think above the muscle would have worked on my frame or lower body fat percentage. I didn't want to have it LOOK like I had these giant fake boobs so that was my biggest concern going in. Yes it did take a little longer to recover with the subpectoral, and getting back to weight lifting but 5-6 months post surgery I was benching around the same amount of weight I was doing a week before surgery. I have had NO limitations with exercising or stretching so its been great!
It took a little while to adjust to having the implants under the muscle and they move around a bit whenever I flex my chest but relaxed they look perfectly fine. You adjust to them a lot faster than you think. They are by no means bouncy and soft ,but I understand that it may be the muscle that is so tight around the implants. I do wish they were a little bit more loose but they look great with a push up bra. I got the smooth round moderate plus profile gel implants that were 350 cc. I haven't figured out the perfect bra yet, but I know I barely fit in a 32C at the moment. I think a 32D will be a better fit honestly.
Just be prepared to have them look very swollen and inflated for a while. You will look like you are wearing a crazy push up bra for the first couple months, but they will eventually drop down. I made the mistake of doing the surgery going into summer. I thought yay Ill look great in my bikini. But in every tank top and swimsuit I looked a little ridiculous that first month- they looked REALLY big. If I could have changed anything I would have done the surgery in the winter so that by summer they looked closer to normal. So just a heads up!
The pics I have posted are from the night before surgery and then 1 year post surgery exactly. I will try and post pics from a few weeks post surgery if I can find them. Thanks! Hope this helps.

Dr. Fata was fantastic. Very professional and had an excellent team at Renaissance Plastic Surgery. I never felt pressured into anything and he was very flexible to work with. His experience and expertise really show, and he really wants to help you find the perfect fit and make sure you are happy with the result.
