Answer: Is that true that Implant placed under the muscle ends up looking smaller? It is not unreasonable to increase the size by about 10% due to compressive forces.Kenneth Hughes, MDLos Angeles, CA

Answer: Is that true that Implant placed under the muscle ends up looking smaller? Women seeking to undergo breast augmentation surgery can really confuse themselves if they listen to all the “myths” out there. I would suggest, instead that you communicate your goals very carefully with your plastic surgeon, who you should choose carefully. In my practice, I find the use of goal pictures, in bra sizers, verbal communication in front of a full-length mirror, and computer imaging all very helpful during the communication process. On the other the hand, references to cup sizes ( such as C or D cup) are not helpful; words such as “natural” or “fake looking” can be confusing as well. Then, based on careful communication and with the use of intraoperative sizers, I am able to select the best breast implant size/profile to achieve the patient's goals as closely as possible. Again, please do not get too hung up on the mythology surrounding breast augmentation surgery. Best wishes.
