Should I go over or under the muscle? (Photo)

B
Bright813121May 12, 2024

I'm really keen on getting a boobjob soon, but I can't decide whether I should go over or under the muscle. I have a bunch of wish pics (and I know I may not get similar results in a single session and may need multiple boobjobs), but I was just wondering whether I should go with overs or unders given my goals from a glance of my wish pics. I'm looking to get results similar to Miss Teela or Anastasia doll as an end goal. Images of my wish pics and my current breast size attached.

Hello, The subfascial technique is very safe. I highly suggest any patients who are active and or lift weights to have implants placed under the subfascial lining. It has the same rate of capsular contracture if not a little less. All the best, Dr. Joe

Thank you for your inquiry! A lift would be recommended with the placement of the implants. Bringing the nipple back up to the level of the fold would give the best result. We would love to meet with you to discuss your options. Schedule a consultation with a Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon!

This is a common result after subfascial/subglandular augmentation because there is minimal coverage/support from the pectoralis muscle. The distance from the nipple to fold will increase as the implant starts to exert its effect on the soft tissues. The absolute nipple to fold distance...

Hello and thank you for your question. Implants and fat grafting are certainly "tried and true" methods of breast augmentation that have proven to be safe and effective for many patients, although they do have risks inherent of any invasive procedure as well as downtime and maintenance...
