I have a consult booked in December with a top surgeon in my area. I would love to have other opinions. I’m a competitive bodybuilder with a muscular build. I’m 36, 5’2, 135lbs, no kids. I had a Brest reduction about 11 years ago. I’m looking for small implants around C cup. I’m thinking about saline implants under the pec. I’d love some recommendations on the following. Under pec vs over pec, Saline vs silicone, Low profile vs high profile etc, concerns about scaring from prev reduction

Answer: Implants for bodybuilder Thanks for your question. You really should have implants over the muscle. Animation deformity, or movement of the muscle while flexing your pectoral muscles, is the main issue that women who have your hobby would want to avoid. I believe the subfascial position is best. A surgeon could go through your current breast lift scars. A firmer implant such as the Natrelle Cohesive implants would be a good choice as they ripple less and there is an increased risk for rippling when implants are over the muscle.

Answer: Above muscle I recommend in all of my bodybuilders that they go above the muscle. There is too much distortion on stage when you are flexing and because you do a lot of chest exercises that muscle flexion has a tendency to push the implant to the side if they are under the muscle.You have breast tissue so silicone or saline is probably an OK option but if saline , I would probably overfill to counteract any rippling and some of my bodybuilders like more of that round, overfilled shape!
