Where are the incisions made during breast augmentation surgery?
Your incisions will vary depending on the type and size of implant you choose and how you are shaped. Generally, incisions are made either under the breast in the existing crease or around the nipple/areola complex. It is also possible to place incisions in the armpit or belly button. However, if a complication occurs, it may be necessary to place a new incision under the breast or around the nipple/areola. What is the recovery like following breast augmentation? Immediately after breast augmentation surgery, you will probably experience swelling and some discomfort. Dr. Robinson will prescribe a pain medication to alleviate any pain or discomfort and will recommend that you wear a support bra for a few weeks. Depending on your discomfort, you may be able to resume work after as little as three days. It is important to remember that the full results may not be evident for several months as your body adjusts and heals.
