Are subglandular implants a bad idea? Should I get 325 cc high profile placed subglandularly or submuscularly? (photos)

Asked By:shellybrown565 in Vancouver, BC

My plastic surgeon is considered the best in my city. However, I am confused by his recommendations. He said that he thinks I could get an equally good result with subglandular or submuscular implants, as in his opinion I have sufficient tissue, thick skin, and good skin elasticity. He said that because I have thick pectoral muscles and am very active, he might lean towards subglandular placement, but that he will let me decide which placement I prefer because either way will work for me.
