I'm a 32B and decided on 435CC, GB implants. My Dr suggested o-t-m, what are the benefits to this vs u-t-m?I want to be sure I make the right decision when it comes to under or over the muscle. My doctor suggested over the muscle. I'm 5'9 and 150 lbs with 32B sizing now. I do want somewhat of the "fake boob" look but not like stuck on Barbie boobs. What are the benefits to over the muscle vs under outside of healing time?
Answer: Breast augmentation Subglandular implants have a much higher risk of capsular contracture than submuscular pocket. They can also appear less natural as there is not as much tissue covering the implant. The vast majority of breast augmentations are done in the submuscular plane. The muscle provides support, coverage, and protection against capsular contracture.

Answer: Implants For most women, I prefer placing the implants behind the muscle to give better upper breast fullness, less fake look, less visible implant edge, and more support to the weight of the implant over time with less sagging. In women who have a fair amount of tissue and who are not choosing large implants, I will place the implants just behind the breasts. Long term, implants do very well behind the muscle.

Answer: How would I benefit from over the muscle vs under outside of healing time? Over the muscle benefits include implants are easier to place, women who lift weights find that the OTM prevents displacement of the implant when working out. Overs can give a more "fake", augmented look.

Answer: How would I benefit from over the muscle vs under outside of healing time? Thank you for sharing your question. In most cases patients benefit most from going beneath the muscle as the outcome and long-term issues are fewer. That said, the benefits to going above the muscle would include a faster recovery with less pain, as well as a faster outcome. Hope this helps.
