Answer: Benefits of Submuscular Implant Placement Thank you for your question. The submuscular placement allows the muscle to cover the upper portion of the implant. This can result in a more natural slope to the breast, especially in the upper pole, and prevents the “stuck-on” or overly round appearance that can happen with implants placed above the muscle. The muscle also provides an additional layer of coverage over the implant to reduce the visibility of rippling, especially for patients with thin breast tissue, and reduce the risk of sagging over time, especially with larger implants. However, factors such as age, weight fluctuations, and skin elasticity can still affect the appearance of the breasts. However, your results will still be influenced by natural changes in your body over time, and some maintenance or revisions may be needed in the long term.

Answer: Implants belong in the sub muscular dual plane position Submuscular dual plane transaxillary breast augmentation looks great for a very long time. My patients with saline implants (which do not need to be removed every 10 years) have beautiful implants 15 to 25 years later.

Answer: Check the link below for results of breast augmentation These results are at 9 months and fully dropped and fluffed. Only significant weight change (10% or more of your body weight up and down) or the milk of pregnancy, in my experience, can possibly change these results.

Answer: One year post operative appearance depends on many factors. For the sake of this discussion, I will assume that you have a normal shaped breast, your nipple/areola are above the level of your fold, and during your augmentation a proportional sized implant was placed in your breast, resting on your IMF. I will assume that your surgeon followed the 14 step protocol to minimize capsular contracture and placed your implants symmetrically and you have had no intervening trauma, infections or other issues with your breasts. If this is true, your breast appearance one year after a breast, augmentation should look like a larger version of the breast that you started with and how they appeared 2 months after surgery. Changes can occur if very large implants are placed, and the weight of the implant stretches the tissue, you have had trauma or bleeding in the pocket, you have breast-fed and had mastitis which could lead to capsular contracture or a new from inframammary fold had to be created with sutures. These, and many other factors, could potentially affect the appearance of the breast one year after surgery. If you have concerns, discuss these in person with your plastic surgeon so he can examine your concerns.
