Mammogram with over the muscle implants?

I am 32, C cup, 190lb , 5'11. I am currently scheduled for my augmentation in a month but am worrying about having my implants over the muscle. My surgeon has examined me and said since I have ample tissue in the bottom of my breasts that to get a fuller look like I want she would go over the muscle. 450-500 cc's is what I'm debating. So my question is how hard is it to get a mammogram if my implants are over the muscle?
