Can You Keep Your Under the Muscle Implant and Have One Put over the Muscle? (photo)

April 12, 2012
Asked By:joescows

I have had implants under the muscle for about 10 years, I am 41 and have lost a lot of volume in my natural breast tissue, nursing and weight loss. My surgeon wants to do a lift on me, I will lose breast size. I would like to increase my breast size and have a full rounded look. Is it possible to have implants put overtop of the muscle while leaving the original ones underneath? What are my options?
