Implant behind muscle. Can my new implants be placed over the muscle?

Tiffany688
I’m a female 5’4” 153lb and had a breast augmentation in 2006 but I’m looking to find the right surgeon in Portland,OROne of my questions is, my previous surgeon had put the Saline implants behind the muscle, which caused the breasts to severely fall to the side when laying down. When I get my next surgery augmentation from 36C to D and a lift I’m guessing… can my new surgeon put the new implants over the muscle? Is there going to be saggy skin on the side or will the new implant fill that in?
