What is a periareolar incision in breast enlargement surgery?
The periareolar incision goes around the nipple. It is less noticeable, smaller than the inframammary incision, and if a lift is required later in time, it may be utilized again. Its disadvantages in breast enlargement surgery are a higher infection rate (because the cut goes through breast tissue), possible difficulty in breastfeeding, and the risk of decreased sensation in breast skin and nipple sensation.
