Can a Small Implant Placed Above the Muscle Look Natural in a Thin Woman? (photo)

December 19, 2011
Asked By:Alice87

I am having doubts between submuscular and subfascial placement. I am a thin woman, which for most PS is a sign to go with submuscular or dual plane augmentation. I want them to look good but I am afraid of distortion of the breast with muscle contraction, rippling and implant edges being very visible. Can a small implant 200cc - 250cc placed in the subfascial plane look natural in a thin woman? Or is it better to consider a 280cc placed submuscular? I am 5.1ft, 88lbs and BWD of 11cm. Thanks
