It takes almost twice as long to see the result when placing the implant under the muscle, rather than above it. Thus, the patient is required to exercise a higher degree of caution, especially when it comes to resuming workouts and exercise after the recommended period of \u201cno exercise\u201d has lapsed. This is over and above the care one must take even if the implant is placed behind the tissue but above the muscle.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, the patient\u2019s condition and tissue characteristics may make it either imperative to place the implants only behind the muscle or make the patient not a viable candidate for the dual-plane technique. This is determined on a case-to-case basis and thus the accompanying outcome and care procedures need to be followed.<\/p>\n<p>Dr Rajat Gupta is a <a href=\"https:\/\/bloginsights.in\/rgnewdemo\/about-dr-rajat-gupta\/\">board-certified cosmetic surgeon<\/a>, with 12 years of experience in the field.
