Can Under the Muscle Implants Be Moved to Over?

jodieQ
I am 5'8" in height and weighing 138 lbs. I'm in good shape--I jog, do push ups, and light weights. I've nursed 3 children for the last 5 years. I have 425 cc implants placed partially submuscular a year ago. The slightest flex of chest muscle makes my breasts appear unnatural. It makes the implants move upward while the bottom part ripples out. It's becoming more obvious over time. Overall, my breasts look natural and pleasant the muscle is relaxed. But to keep this from worsening, can one go from under the muscle implants to over?
