What are the different options for implant placement and is one best? There are two options for implant placement...

There are two options for implant placement, including the subglandular placement (above the chest muscle) and the submuscular placement (below the chest muscle). There are advantages and disadvantages to each, and choosing which is right for you is best done with the help of your doctor. In general, the submuscular placement is associated with a decreased risk of implant palpability, capsular contracture and mammography interference, but this placement also involves longer surgery and recovery times, less accessibility in case of reoperation and more pain. The subglandular placement, on the other hand, is associated with shorter surgery and recovery times, easier accessibility in case of reoperation and less pain, but this placement also involves an increased risk of implant palpability, capsular contracture and mammography interference.
