Over muscle vs under muscle? I am looking for a natural look, concerned my chest muscles will distort my breasts

Typically those patients wishing for a more natural look will select below muscle placement. The muscle will cover a portion of the implant, disguising contour irregularities. I encourage you to discuss your concerns with a board certified plastic surgeon near you to learn more.

Thank you for your question.
I have many patients who are very athletic whether they are consistently working out or participating in cross-fit programs who will get breast augmentations. My recommendation is to place the implants above the muscle. With a below the muscle breast augmentation, there is a risk of the implant moving laterally, towards the axilla area which is not a great aesthetic. With an above the muscle breast augmentation, it will look natural. Given the choice, I would recommend silicone over saline implants for a more natural appearance.
