Breast Augmentation

How is breast augmentation performed? 

 

The technique used for your surgery depends not only on your surgeon's preferences, but also on your desired results. The incision is small and is usualy made in one of three locations: underneath the breast just above the crease; around the lower edge of the areola; or within the armpit.

Once the incision is made, the surgeon creates a pocket into which the implant is inserted. This pocket is made either directly behind the breast tissue (b) or beneath the pectoral muscle located below the breast tissue and above the chest wall (a).

After surgery, scars will fade with time.
