Just wondering, I've been reading posts here and there and was wondering.....My incision is about 1/2 inch above my crease and has been since day one in surgery. Is this alright?

Yes, that sounds like it's in just the right spot. The incision shouldn't be in the crease itself, since that would show if you were - for example - wearing a bikini top and raised your arms. By having the incision a little bit above the crease, you wont flash your incision if that bikini top rides up a little.

If your incision starts getting further away from your crease, that's cause for concern, since what it probably means is that the implant is slipping down and bottoming out.

But, at a half-inch above your crease, it sounds like your incisions are in the perfect spot.
