Selecting plastic surgery in La Jolla can pose questions. In regards to breast augmentation: Over or Under the Muscle? Breast implants can be placed under the breast and in front of thepectoral muscle, or under the muscle. A good (or unfavorable) outcome can result with either method,but some body types and breast shapes will generally do better with "over" than " under". For example, women with "sagging" breasts may be better off with an implant in front of the muscle, so the implant will " settle" into the breast,rather than remain in a too high position. This can happen if the muscle holds the implant tighter and higher than the loose skincan handle. Repositioning of the implant or a "lift" procedure may be needed. Plastic Surgery in La Jolla can be a difficult decision to make especially when it comes to breast augmentation and the type of breast implant used and technique.
