There are advantages and disadvantages to every consideration in breast augmentation Phoenix, and there is no single best way for the surgery to be performed. Following are many of these considerations and their pros and cons.

Should breast implants be placed above the muscle or below the muscle?

There are many considerations to make before undergoing breast augmentation surgery in Phoenix, Arizona. Dr. Kotoske, breast augmentation Phoenix Arizona - will evaluate your individual body type, the amount of existing breast tissue, and the look you desire. Usually, the breast implant is inserted behind the mammary glands and the breast tissue. However, sometimes the implant is placed in front of the pectoralis muscle, and other times it is placed behind it.

When the implant is behind the muscle, the muscle covers most of the implant. This helps to provide a smoother transition from the chest muscle to the breast, as well as to conceal the implant. Dr. Kotoske, breast augmentation Phoenix Arizona - will help you determine which position is best for you.

If you have a small amount of breast tissue, it is more likely that Dr. Kotoske will want to place the implant behind the muscle as part of your breast augmentation. If the implant was placed in front of the muscle, there would not be as much breast tissue to cover the implant, so more of the implant would be visible. Clearly, if more of the implant is covered by muscle, it will be more difficult for you and others to notice the actual implant. For the most natural, smooth look, this is likely the best choice for your breast augmentation surgery in Phoenix, Arizona. If you have approximately 3 cm or greater of breast tissue, there is more of a choice between placing the implant above or below the muscle.

What type of incision is best?

The most common incision for inserting breast implants in breast augmentation is called periarealor. The incision is made around the areola, which is the darker skin around the nipple. Sometimes this incision technique is mistakenly called “through the nipple.” Most women have positive results with this technique, as the incision is almost undetectable after healing.

Another common technique is to make the incision in the fold under the breast. This is called an inframammary incision. Dr. Kotoske, a specialist in breast augmentation Phoenix, Arizona, will determine if this is the best choice for you. All of this is based on your individual body type, and the personal goals you have for your breast augmentation Phoenix, Arizona.

A third technique is commonly used for breast augmentation. This type of incision and insertion technique is called transaxillary, which refers to the fact that the breast implant is inserted through the armpit.

Often, with this technique, the scar after surgery may be the least noticeable – it is not even near the breast, and is usually not seen. This procedure also allows the surgeon to easily insert the implant under the muscle. Some plastic surgeons prefer this approach. Many doctors, like Dr. Kotoske, use an endoscope (a pencil-sized fiber-optic camera), to achieve great cosmetic results with the transaxillary technique for breast augmentation surgery in Phoenix, Arizona.
