How is the breast augmentation (enlargement, enhancement) surgery done?
The surgery is performed by inserting a breast prosthesis, a small silicone bag containing either silicone gel or saline. The prosthesis is inserted in one of two positions, either under the breast tissue itself or under the pectoral muscle beneath the breast tissue via a small incision which can be placed in the crease underneath the breast around the lower part of the nipple areola or in the armpit, space is made for the implant, the implant is inserted and the wound is closed with invisible dissolving sutures.
