Hi everyone. I'm scheduled for BA/TT 29 Mar. My second preop is 19 Mar. My PS is recommending subglandular but after reading reviews I'm torn. I'm active duty military and just finished a 1yr deployment in Afghanistan where I lost 30lbs. I'm excited. Has anyone went the subglandular route? If so I'd love to hear your thoughts...

Spoke with my Dr and he said he'll do over or under. I really enjoy crossfit and I'm not sure if unders are the best choice. Has anyone had any issues lifting weights after surgery

My breast sag bad or to me they do and I want more upper pole and perky breast so I decided under with a vertical lift myself. Each person is different but I want to prevent rippling later on.

Thanks for the info. I'm leaning more towards under. 2 more days and counting...

These decisions are rough! I had one surgeon recommend under and another recommend over. I ultimately went with over and I could not be happier with the results. I should have inquired more about over vs under, but my doc is truly gifted and well respected, so when he said over, I figured I would defer to his judgment. My befores look a bit like yours and I just posted some afters. Love the result -- check it out on my review! As for activity, I am also an active gal. I don't know if I will be able to be more active after healing by choosing the overs, but I can say that my recovery period is six weeks. No more than walking for that period. That is the longest I have ever gone as an adult without exercise. Murder! Good luck with your decision and thank you for your service!

Wow...you look great and I hope mine turn out like yours. Thanks for the post. I've seen so much about unders but hardly anything about overs.

I did over and I have a looonnngg review if you want to check it out! I previously did bootcamp 3 days a week and do other strength training/cardio other days. A friend of mine who did have a BA did unders and she said that she does notice that her implants do shift when she does upper body strength training. I'm still in recovery so I can't lift yet! Let me know if you have any questions! :)
