Dropping & Fluffing

So I feel like the black sheep in the family. All of you with unders are talking about dropping & fluffing. I didn't get unders, but I didn't get overs either. My implants are under the pectoral fascia lining. I know there is one woman on the forum who had this done also (Atomic), and she did drop and fluff. But I just wonder if that is the case for everyone who has this placement. My breasts don't currently ride high. But they do look a little "bound" - kind of hard, not very natural looking yet. I do hope that I fluff a little, but don't necessarily want to get any bigger.

I just wonder how I can judge how much change I'm going to go through. Do I compare myself with someone who has overs? And if so, those of you with overs, how much change did you go through? Can I see some group pics, please?

Is the placement you're talking about like having partial unders?

No. My placement is not unders or overs or partials. My placement is under the fascial lining of the pectoral muscles. Not too many PS's offer this procedure, so there's not a lot of documentation on it. I think I have the best of both worlds - I have the support of the fascial muscle lining (much like the support of having unders), but I have the beautiful apearrance of having overs, because my muscle hasn't been cut. It's hard to describe. That's why i'm so curious how I'm going to turn out.

Does your PS have a website with a graphic of what this placement looks like? I think it might help us in seeing if you do or not need to drop and fluff like the under or the partial girls - not that any of us have any medical advice to offer, but seeing it would help in understanding it.

Just reading your description, it looks exactly like a partial to me. But you insist that your muscle was not disturbed - after the muscle, you have the breast tissue... the last one is usually not cut into... the implant is placed behind that and before the muscle to create overs. What else is left? I'm no mammospecialist, haha.

Well... err... providing you DO need to drop and fluff - for some of us, it still happens 6 months down the road.

However, you may have it as good as it gets. Some ladies have very round, very up there implants and that's the look - that's how it stays. Not all implants will fall... especially with overs.

That was very interesting information in the link. I had never heard of that kind of placement.... but after reading the information - it sounds like most of the healing is very similar to overs rather than unders because the implant isn't being pressed at all.... it seems like the best of both worlds!

Let me just say you look fantastic already hun... having read the info in the links it would be my guess that you are not going to have a lot of D&F to do...if you wanted to compare yourself I would do it with the over rather than under girls J x
