My saline implants are 28 yrs old and were placed under the muscle. I’m about to have radiation, post breast cancer lumpectomy. Should I be concerned that the radiation will cause a problem with/for the implant?
Seeing these results always makes me sad. I had a saline reconstruction of my right breast when I was 30 following my BC, and it is not natural looking. My breast is essentially a placeholder under my clothes. The shape is wrong, it is higher than the other breast (at the "crease" underneath), and the skin folds around it. I am extremely asymmetrical and I have a hard time with different necklines because my breasts don't sit in a balanced manner. I'm getting married in a few weeks, and my seamstress had to purposely skew my alterations to mask the defect. I'm 18+ years in remission now, for which I am blessed and grateful, but I wish I felt less like a science experiment and more like a woman. 🙁 I'm glad that women now have better options.

How many CC’s did you use in this patient? They look really good

So the saline implant is over the muscle, but yet under the natural breast tissue ?
Yes, that is where they usually put the saline implants is in between the muscle and breast tissue.
