Breast Augmentation Are there different types of Breast Augmentation procedures?
Yes: Depending on personal requirements the implant can be brought in position through different incisions: There is the peri-areolar incision which is made at the border of the brownish skin that surrounds your nipple. The Infra-mammary or “Crease” Incision is very popular; this is where the incision is placed a little above where the breast and rib cage meet, on your breast lobe. Another alternative incision is the Trans-Auxiliary or Armpit Incision, which is made near your armpit. By the TUBA (trans-umbilical) breast augmentation the incision is made near the navel and positioned in endoscope way. The implant can finally be placed either upon or underneath the chest muscle: “Sub-glandular” is the act of placing the implant over the pectoral muscles under the glands and tissue of the breast. By “Sub-muscular” the implant is placed under the muscle fascia.
