Do you need to massage over the muscle implants?

October 24, 2016
Asked By:zabasi in New York, NY

Hello... I have recently had a breast lift ( 3 weeks ago) with 200 cc over the muscle implants ... I have been instructed to start massaging ... Whether your implant is over or under the muscle should the type of massage be the same ?
