For quick, effective results- would gummy bear implants (above muscle) be a good choice?

December 23, 2014
Asked By:GoatGal in Alsip, IL

I have very small breasts, nearly cone-shaped (36A). I cannot get disability, and only have 3-4 weeks vacation time to heal. (and I'm not quitting or waiting for retirement to get them). I figure above the muscle will heal faster, and the gummy bear shape will help with a more natural look.
