Transaxillary Breast Augmentation

Breast augmentation is the most sought after plastic surgery procedure as a means to improve appearance and increase self-confidence. Over the last decade, breast augmentation patients have more options when selecting the placement of their implants. New and improved methods of transaxillary, or under the arm, placement offer the same incredible results without the unsightly scar on the breast.

Dr. Ennis Describes the Transaxillary Breast Augmentation Procedure

Surgery Technique

Patients are curious about how this advanced Transaxillary Breast Augmentation procedure differs from typical breast augmentation surgery. The difference boils down to how the implant is placed. Rather than cutting an incision in the fold under the breast or around the nipple, a small incision is made in the crease of the armpit. An HD endoscopic camera is inserted to examine the pocket and then the implant is placed the under the pectoral muscle which offers an incredibly natural look.

For surgery, the patient is placed under general anesthesia and the procedure takes about an hour to complete. Postoperatively, the patient can expect moderate pain, bruising and swelling but is typically able to return to work within a few days. A follow up visit to your surgeon is scheduled one week after surgery and patients will be required to massage their breasts at home following the operation.

Type of Implants

The no scar on the breast augmentation can utilize saline or silicone implants. However, very large silicone implants may not be able to be placed in this incision and will be discussed at your consultation.

Advantages of the No Scar on the Breast Augmentation

Our patient are drawn to the numerous benefits this technique offers. Here are a few of the top advantages:
1. The incision site in the armpit heals much faster. If scarring occurs, it will be virtually invisible due to the natural creases in the armpit
2. The implant is placed under the muscle, giving support and a natural shape to the breast
3. No scars on the breast, any visible scarring won’t be a giveaway for augmentation
4. Larger implants won’t cause tension on the incision site since it is not on the breast
5. There is no need to cut into the muscle and therefore, most patients find recovery is much easier

Will I have an unsightly cleavage gap?

One myth is this method leaves patients with a large gap between their breasts. It should be understood that the gap that some women have after breast augmentation has nothing to do with the incision and everything to do with the selection of an incorrect implant. A skilled surgeon like Dr. Ennis will be able to select the correct implant width to help you achieve the most desirable cleavage for your body type.

Will the implants fall or get stuck in my armpit?

Some people have been misguided to believe that if they lay down to the side that their breasts will fall into their armpit. Of course, any breast will naturally fall to the side of your body slightly if you are in the prone position. After breast augmentation, the breast remains situated because of the pocket created for the implant. Therefore, the breasts will not move unnaturally based on various movements or positions.

Is the recovery time increased?

Quite the contrary, many patients experience a faster recovery time. While some pain and soreness is expected for the first week, people who have experienced both the transaxillary and traditional augmentation indicate that the pain is less invasive than when incisions are made on the breasts.

Are You a Good Candidate Transaxillary Breast Augmentation?

As with any procedure, it is important to make sure that you are in proper health and and have discussed potential results and possible challenges with your plastic surgeon. To know all of your options, choose a surgeon able to perform all incisions so you know the decision is based on you, the patient, and not just the surgeon’s ability. Dr. Ennis is able to perform all three incisions although he prefers the No Scar on the Breast augmentation for best aesthetic results.
