I love my new breast they are softer than my saline and no huge gap or ripples! My ? Is when I tighten my peck muscles my breast moves wth/muscle. Example Dwayne Johnson making his pecks dance lol

George Bitar, MD · Answer

It is normal to have some muscle movement with sub muscular augmentation especially if you have larger more developed muscles.

Don W. Griffin, MD · Answer

This is common after subpectoral augmentation and can range from mild to severe. Scoring of the muscle internally or change to a subglandular position are options to discuss with your surgeon if the problem is severe enough that you would consider a revision.

Peter E. Johnson, MD · Answer

An interesting analogy, and this is one side effect of submuscular breast augmentation. The breast and implant will move as you flex your chest muscle. This can be modest for some, and a problem for others. A shaped textured implant might do well subglandular if you are having an issue.
