Where are the cuts made for inserting breast implants, how big are these and how easily are they hidden?
Incisions can be made either in the crease underneath the breast, around the nipple-areola or in the armpit. There are pros and cons for each of these incisions and not everyone is suitable for each incision. For instance if you have a very small nipple-areola it is difficult to make the incision large enough to insert breast implants. Incisions in the crease underneath the breast are very common. Depending on the type of implant, this may vary between two to five centimetres. Because saline breast implants are not filled until after they are inserted, it is usually possible to make incisions for saline implants smaller than for cohesive silicone gel implants. Incisions in the crease underneath the breast and in the nipple-areola region can be hidden by a bikini top.
