From my understanding my implants are FULLY submuscular and my muscle wasn't "fully released". I am looking at explanting and curious about muscle reattachment. Some surgeons say they can and some say the can't and it's virtually impossible to do. Is it possible? I have seen photos of explants of women who explanted without muscle reattachment and their breast is completely pulled up? Is this common?

Answer: Implant removal Dear Feelinglost16, it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.

Answer: Explant and muscle reattachment? Thank you for sharing your question. The best decision would be based on your current appearance and animation as well as what the muscle looks like once the implant has been removed. Talk to your surgeon about your concerns as they are in the best position to discuss the possibilities of surgery
