Have you had breast augmentation?

He surgeon said she will have to put the implant under my muscle as she doesn't have enough skin and fat to work with. I wonder how under the muscle feels opposed to skin and what the healing difference is? She said I will feel my implants and there is no way around that.

My implants are above the muscle but below the fascia which is a tough membrane that covers the muscle. I can feel my implants. I forgot exactly why he put them above, I think it had to do with plenty of loose tissue that would hang funny otherwise.

I have had both sets of implants (first saline, now gel) under the muscle and I have never "felt" my implants. SO...I don't know what your doc is talking about!!

All I have is muscle. Lol. Seriously just skin. Pretty sad shape. She doesn't have much to work with.

How did the healing compare?

I had the saline inserted just under the breast in the crease and the gels through the nipple (as I had a mini lift, too. I preferred my saline with their placement much more than these gel through the nipple! My saline looked and felt much more natural to thee touch!!! Both my daughters each got implants last year. One got saline and one got gel. Both UNDER the muscle as that is how 90% are placed. Each have had no issues and like the choice they made. But, as far as healing..no difference.
