Where do You Want Your Breast Implants Placed?

Once you decide you want breast implants, you have several more choices to make. Most women could guess that breast augmentation is the most performed plastic surgery, but they don’t know the different options women have with this breast procedure. When you are consulting with your plastic surgeon, you will decide size, material, and shape of your implants. Your surgeon will also give suggestions where your implants should be placed either under your subpectoral muscle or your breast tissue.

Under Breast Tissue— Implants placed under your breast tissue have a quicker post-surgery recovery. Implants can be placed closer and don’t have as strict of size limits as those placed under the muscle. This placement can show visible rippling and can sag over time with less support.

Under the Muscle— Placement under the muscle gives the implant more protection and has less chance of ripples or folds. This surgery is more invasive and can require extra time to recover from. If you don’t have enough breast tissue, this is the option to consider.

Where you decide to have your breast implants placed is a personal choice made with careful direction from your board certified plastic surgeon.
