Over or Under the Muscle? So Confused! (photo)

I would also recommend submuscular placement for the same reasons as most plastics surgeons on here. The implant coverage is superior and the complication rate lower. There is a rare person for whom recommend subglandular implants. I would recommend getting additional opinions if you are still confused and ask the surgeon about your concern. Ultimately, finding a surgeon is a personal decision and you need to find someone you trust and develop a relationship with . Ultimately, not sound patronizing, it is best to let your doctor guide you into making the right decision, just as you would with any professional.

Most surgeons in the USA using modern techniques would advise you have a sub muscular augmentation. This is shown in the three doctors who recommended this. Implants above the muscle have more visibility issues and a higher risk for capsular contracture. Is the last surgeon much older than the others? This may represent a practice that is using older techniques.

In my opinion, implants should be placed under the muscle with only rare exceptions. The exception might be a severe tubular breast deformity. you can certainly obtain a very natural result with a sub muscular augmentation and mammography will be more effective with the implant under the muscle.
