Body Parts Where Brest Enlargement Surgery Implants Can be Inserted

Bust augmentation involves the procedure of putting the implants inside the breast of the patient. Prior to the breast enlargement surgery itself, patients are given the right to choose which part of their body – on the crease beneath their bust, through the tummy button, around the areola or under their armpit – they would like their implants to be inserted. Most surgeons will normally give out their opinion on where will be ideal for you to have your incision and the method that will leave you with scars that are not that noticeable. This is why it’s important that you know and understand what process is involved when inserting the implants on any of those body areas. 

On the Crease Beneath the Bust

The most popular among the four options, placing the breast enlargement surgery implants beneath the crease of the bust is often utilized by majority of doctors for it allows them to precisely put the implants on their exact location. Also, this technique will let your surgeon easily lift up or lower down the crease beneath your breast during the operation.

Through the Tummy Button

This next technique of insertion through the tummy button using a tiny opening on the skin can only be utilized for saline implants. The problem is that it’s usually hard for surgeons to precisely place the implant on its right position on the breast. Hence, it’s no wonder why nowadays, just a few (or none at all) doctors are relaying on this method.

Around the Areola

Since a five centimeter incision is needed when doing this technique, this is not the best option for patients with small sized areolas. The breast enlargement surgery implants will be put on the skin around the areola, connecting to the bust. This process seemed easy that’s why it’s also used by many plastic surgeons.

Under the Armpit

Many opt to have their implants placed under their armpit, a method also known as the auxiliary procedure, so they won’t have any hassles concealing their scars later on. Yet, due to the fact that the implants are inserted on the muscle under the armpit, patients will be more prone to infections. Surgeons will also find it hard to arrange the implants on their exact position, as well as in checking if their heights are even while putting them during the breast enlargement surgery administration.
