This is a question I am often asked and many people are not sure whether their breast implants have been placed under the muscle or over the muscle.

There is a simple test for this, and if you place your hands on your hips press inwards this contracts the muscle of your chest.

If the implants are behind the muscle the top of the implant will flatten. If they are over the muscle the breast implants will not flatten because they are not being squeezed by the muscle.

Using this quick and simple test you’ll be able to tell whether your breast implants are behind or infront of the muscle.

Breast Enhancement is proving year on year to be one of the most requested treatments in aesthetics.  The British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons (BAAPS) revealed in its annual audit that breast augmentation was the most popular procedure among women treated by it’s members in 2008 – a 30% increase on the previous year.

Adrian Richards, Leading Consultant Plastic Surgeon at Aurora Clinics has seen a 26% increase this year based on the same period in 2008 on Breast Augmentation  Surgery.

Aurora Clinics offer free consultations for their patients.  You will meet the surgeon at your first consultation.  He will explain the procedure in full to you and detail any possible complications that could arise from having this surgery.  Before and after photographs of recent patients will be shown to you and, if requested, we will put you in touch with a previous Aurora Patient so you can hear their first hand experience of undergoing this procedure.

Should you wish to make an appointment to discuss this procedure or any other surgical or non-surgical procedure please complete the contact form.
