Surgery in 1 month, surgeons recommendation is 430cc OVER the muscle motiva ergonomix with no lift. I haven't sought a second opinion but worry I'll just end up with heavy droopy strapped on boobs. Everyone seems to have unders. I've lost 70kg, mother of 2 and have no intention for future babies but can't afford a revision surgery so would appreciate a second opinion. My request was full but natural looking breasts. Appreciate any guidance you can provide. Thankyou!

Answer: Is over muscle no lift possible? Hello @FindingMyBetterHalf thank you for your question and showing your pictures. It is important to make a surgical plan that takes into account weight, height and contour measurements and that the maximum time to change the prosthesis is 10 years, at the time of implantation. Best wishes! Alan Gonzalez MD, FACS.

Answer: Over the muscle with weight loss Hello, thank you for your question. Congratulations on you weight loss! great work! There are other benefits to going under the muscle, it adds support to the implant and less of a capsular contracture risk. You can go over the muscle and this may sit in a nice area for the short term period without any issues. As time goes one your natural breast tissue along with the weight of the implant may drop even lower. Yes if you are considering under plus a lift, it is the better way to go for the long run. Consider financing the surgery or waiting a bit longer to save up to have the entire surgery. Of course speaking to a plastic surgeon for a second opinion is another option as well. I would bring in your wish pics to the surgeon and see which approach will fulfill those expectations.

Answer: Mini lift with fat transfers or small implants Your breasts are too low on the chest wall to undergo augmentation alone. The technique I recommend is a mini lift. Using a circumareola incision, your breast tissue is reshaped, elevated higher on the chest wall and more medial to increase your cleavage. At the same time, fat transfers or small implants can be placed totally submuscular.
