How is Breast Augmentation performed?

There are three general steps in performing breast augmentation (mammoplasty) surgery including:

Step1. Administration of anesthesia: Typically, for a mammoplasty procedure general anesthesia is administered so during operation you’re comfortable and unable to feel any pain or complication.

Step2. Making Incision: In this step after the patient has been completely sedated, the surgeon will make a small incision in each breast to be able to place the breast implant. There are four incision methods in mammoplasty procedure. Before the surgery, the surgeon will discuss which incision method will be more suitable for each patient with the breast implant type selected.

Step3. Implant placement: The surgeon will insert and adjust selected implants into the breasts above the muscle known as subglandular or below submuscular. After ensuring that the implant is secure, the surgeon will artistically close the incisions through tissue then skin with the help of stitches and surgical tape.

Types of incisions:

Periareolar Incision: Periareolar or areolar incision is made around the nipples. The upside of this method is that the surgeon will have a great visibility during implant placement. It will also leave more symmetric results and less scarring as well.

Inframammary Incision: Inframammary incision is made in the crease under the breast. The good thing about this incision method is that the incision has proximity to the surgical site so it gives more surgical precision and control over implant placement and bleeding as well. This type of incision is ideal for silicone implants.

Transaxillary Incision: Transaxillary incision is made under patient’s arm (armpit). This incision is made for saline implants. Generally, this method leaves no scar on the breast but it may cause more inferior asymmetry of the implants.

Trans-umbilical Incision (TUBA): the surgeon makes an incision in the naval area. This incision is less common but good for saline implants with less scarring as well.
