SILICONE BREAST IMPLANT ; IS IT BETTER TO DO IT UNDER MUSCLE OR OVER MUSCLE?
When it comes to breast augmentation, women have many options regarding the size, type and breast implant placement of silicone implants. The best way to determine whether under (submuscular placement) or over the muscle is best for you is to schedule a one-on-one consultation with your plastic surgeon.
The Benefits of Over the Muscle Breast Implants
Some of the benefits associated with the subglandular placement method include:
Since the silicone prosthesis is placed under the breast tissue, above the pectoralis muscles, breast surgery is easier and less invasive
There is no distortion with movement
Post-operative recovery is less painful, and the recovery process is shorter because the muscle remains intact
There is less risk of bleeding
The Benefits of Under the Muscle (submuscular placement) Breast Implants
Under the muscle method is the placement of a breast implant under the pectoralis muscles in the chest. Placement under the muscle has the advantage of more natural results because your breast tissue and muscle cover the implant. Other benefits of submuscular placement include:
Less common risk of rippling
Provides a better view in mammography
Since the muscle supports the implant, it reduces the tension and load on your skin.
Future or simultaneous breast uplift surgery is easier with under muscle placement, as blood flow to the nipple is preserved.In general, in the sub-muscular method, there may be a longer recovery period after surgery.
