I recently posted a question whether to get sub muscular or sub glandular implants and the feedback was most helpful in my decision. I'm leaning toward sub muscular 300cc silicone because I believe this will fill out where I am flat in my upper chest while looking most natural. My question is will this size and placement be enough to give me more cleavage? I've read that submuscular placement gives the chest a wider cleavage and I want to fill my breasts out and achieve more cleavage, not wider.

Answer: Submuscular breast implants will provide better cleavage
There are many advantages to having your breast implants placed in a submuscular(subpectoral) position. It is easier to perform mammograms, there is a higher likelihood of breastfeeding and a lower incidence of capsular contracture (scar tissue). Also, your cleavage will look more natural with implants under the muscle.
Best wishes,

Answer: Subglandular placement of breast implants Placing implants submuscularly can provide you with fullness and cleavage. There are limits as to how much cleavage you can create without causing problems but in my opinion, under the muscle is the better choice. It is difficult to determine implant size and implant profile pre-operatively. Every surgeon utilizes a different technique to determine implant size. It is too much responsibility for the patient to decide on which type of implant should be used. After communicating with the patient, I use sizers intra-operatively to decide which implant profile and size to use to achieve the patient’s overall goals.
