Answer: How can I prevent flex distortion after breast augmentation? Animation deformity after breast augmentation occurs when the implant is placed underneath the muscle. If this becomes very bothersome to a patient, the option is to remove the implants and place them over the muscle. This is a decision that you would make in conjunction with your plastic surgeon. I would recommend that you see your original surgeon or choose a board certified plastic surgeon who is also a member of the American Society For Aesthetic Plastic Surgery.

Answer: Animation deformity of breasts It is fairly common to have some muscle motion of the breasts after sub-pectoral augmentation. This is usually not too noticeable if the muscle has not been over dissected. There are so many advantages of placing the implants under the muscle that I highly recommend it to my patients. Besides the risk of capsular contracture, subglandular implants will look rounder and have much more rippling. Seek a plastic surgeon who is certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery who specializes in cosmetic plastic surgery, as evidenced by membership in The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery. Ask to see many pre and post op photos and speak with previous patients. Don’t
