Some info about BA's thought some people might want to have a look at :)

First of all here’s some stuff about what exactly unders/overs are etc. This link is good to see what each thing means:

http://www.justbreastimplants.com/placement/

According to my surgeon they only dp partial unders and i have looked it up, hardly any surgeons do fully underneath the nuscle unless youve maybe had a breast removed because of cancer or something. you have about 3 layer of muscle to go through before your ribcage but my surgeon told me when people say they’re having “unders” theyre only having their implants under 1 layer of muscle, dont be scared its not as horrific as it may have been made out to be ill try and find the website that shows u all the different placements of implants and ill post it on here

if u even look at what is known as “complete Submuscular” it says “Having the implants completely beneath the pectoral muscles ALONE is not anatomically possible.” so either way, no your muscles will NOT be ripped off of your ribs lol and your most likely only having partial unders……

Now about pregnancy and BA’s:

Here I’ve copy-pated my wall post:

Im having 20 and having a BA in June and plan to have kids at around the age of 25-30. A friend I was talking to brought up the good point of what might happen to them after you have kids! So I reasearched some information and thought I’d put some of the interesting info I found on this for others to see I’m just copy-pasting directly from where I found the info from different plastic surgeons….Just so you know it is NOT advised to have a BA if your planning on having kids in the NEAR future i.e. the next 1-2 years. But my info is based on if people are very young, having a BA and want to have kids more like 5 years down the line.

1. Breasts will usually change after going through pregnancy:

many women notice a loss of volume

less tone and more sagging commonly occur

Implants do not prevent these changes, nor do they make these changes worse, but the relationship of the implant to the breast may be altered as a consequence of the changes from pregnancy.

At the time of breast augmentation, the implant is positioned to be in harmony with your natural breast. If there is much drooping of the breast, the implant position may no longer retain that harmonious position: it may be too high on the chest relative to the position of a now more droopy breast. This can be corrected with a breast lift procedure.

You might also consider a larger implant if you have had much loss of breast volume after pregnancy.

2. Pregnancy will not ruin your breast implants. It may alter the appearance of your breasts. Some breasts will not change in appearance while some breasts have significant changes requiring future surgery. It all depends on how your breast tissue and skin stretch and retract. I have a significant number patients who, after pregnancy, feel their breasts look more natural because of the subtle changes that have occurred.

3.The part of your breasts that are your implants will not change, so the amount of enlargement and stretch is less than an imaginary twin sister with breasts that are the same size as yours without implants. After pregnancy, and probably more so if you breast feed, your breasts will likely lose some tissue volume, giving you less filling (to some degree as individual as each patient) inside a stretched skin brassiere. Fortunately for you, your implants do not decrease in volume or size, so you retain this portion of “fill” unchanged.

What this really means is that your breast implants are not a problem with pregnancy or breast feeding, and that if your breasts change enough that you would like them to be different, your plastic surgeon can discuss these options with you. You may still look great and need nothing, you may want somewhat bigger implants to better fill your breast skin, or you may wish to have a breast lift, with or without implant changes. Your weight after pregnancy also has a major impact. Enjoy your new addition; don’t worry about your breasts

I’m going to leave it there this is the site I got the info from http://www.realself.com/question/pregnancy-ruin-breast-implants

My surgeon also told me I can still breastfeed in the future (unless something went drastically wrong) which was a big issue for me because I really want to

If you’re planning on having a baby in like the next 1-2 years its not advisable to get a BA done yet There are many reasons for this but it wouldnt harm the baby if you DID get pregnant, it’s more about your breasts changing size, shape, sagging etc….

The biggest implants you can have are 525cc high profile implants or 505cc low profile implants, I’ve agreed to 470cc low profile implants just now but I think I want to push for the 505ccs just so I’m definetely NOT disappointed. If you don’t know what different profiles are go to this http://pdf.upviser.fi/CUICatalogue.pdf MYA’s standard CUI implants are on the 4th page (you have the front page, contents page then page 1, 2, 3, 4) and thats the range they use, it shows you all the measurements of each. If they’re high profile they stick out more than low profiles.

This is also MYA’s 10 year guarantee aftercare policy:

MYA’s aftercare will cover the original result for three years, 5 years for capsular contracture and the implants have a 10 year guarantee. MYA have an open door policy so you can come back and see a surgeon at any point after your operation and we have a 24 hour careline number. After your procedure, you will have post operative appointments with the nurse and surgeon.

Capsular contracture usually happens in the first year so thats why they only cover you for 5 years on that. They also say they only cover the implants for 10 years because naturally your boobs will change because of ageing, pregnancy etc. The original result for 3 years is just if you’re not happy with the result, e.g. they were much smaller than you asked for, rippling, etc etc.

If you wanna know anything else you can ask and I MIGHT know the answer? (this is a BIG ‘might’)

Hope this helps everybody
