My gummy bear implants over the muscle done October 2014 should they have been under the muscle ? I was a b cup I'm 5'2 124lbs I'm scared they will sag over time
Answer: Sagging Question Thank you for your question. Your breasts appear to be doing well after surgery. No evidence of sagging is noticable. While it is not possible to prevent sagging 100%, weight gain/loss and pregnancy are the biggest culprits. Avoiding these situations are the best that you can do to reduce the risk of sagging. At this point, there is no indication for moving the implants under the muscle as long as you are doing well and are happy. Best wishes.

Answer: I have gummy bear D cup over the muscle implants. Will they sag in time? Thank you for your question. Both augmented and non-augmented breasts will sag with time due to effects from gravity, hormonal changes, pregnancy and/or nursing. Genetics will play a large role in the degree of sagging so all else being equal it is difficult to know how much yours may droop with time.

Answer: Will Implants Sag Over Time Breast implants are most prone to sagging when the inframammary fold is violated and when implants that are too large for the skin thickness and breast tissue of a patient are used. With proper implant placement and consideration of the patients' natural breast tissue and skin thickness, neither submuscular nor subgladular implants will sag more than the other. Of course, just as if you did not have implants, gravity continues to work and over time the breast tissue that provides support to the breasts becomes weaker and breasts naturally sag. Eventually, if you are unhappy with this natural process you may consider a revision. Best wishes.

Answer: Implants and sagging Eventually all implants will sag as the quality of the skin changes as we get older. Implants do not always need to be placed under the muscle. Best of luck.

Answer: Sagging after breast augmentation Hi, jbeau56All breasts (with or without implant) do sag over time. Gravity and time will make breasts sag. However, if implants are in sub-glandular plane, they would sag more than if they were under the muscle. If you are not happy with your current breast shape, please talk with your plastic surgeon.Best regards.
