Open to all over 200cc to 360cc - is it possible to place implant over the muscle? (Photos)

Hello,

Thank you for the question.

Based on your photos, you appear to be a great candidate for breast augmentation surgery. You may be a candidate for subglandular (above the muscle) breast augmentation but it's difficult to answer without in-person examination.

Implant size discussion and implant selection is one of the most important steps during your consultation with plastic surgeon. The decision-making process depends on patient’s desires, as well as breast and soft tissue dimensions. 350cc size implant will likely give you a full C cleavage if that is what you desire.

I would encourage you to seek a consultation with a Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon to further discuss your options, specific techniques, concerns and expectations.

I hope this helps.
Best regards, Dr. Karanetz

Yes you can consider over the muscle implants, but it's important to understand the pros and cons of each. The main pro for above the muscle is they have a little easier recovery. Some pros of under the muscle are: a lower risk of capsular contracture, more natural look, muscle gives some camouflage to the characteristics of the implant. Your surgeon will be able to discuss implant sizes with you once your breasts are measured. This is different than your bra measurements. The next step is to schedule a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon near you.
