OC Plastic Surgeon Reveals Advantages of Transaxillary Breast Augmentation Incision
Daniel C. Mills of the Aesthetic Plastic Surgical Institute Discusses Why He Prefers to Perform Breast Augmentation Using a Transaxillary Incision
(firmenpresse) - LAGUNA BEACH, CA -- (Marketwired) -- 07/29/15 -- Patients electing to undergo have several incision options through which their implants can be placed, states Dr. Daniel C. Mills, a . Such options include the inframammary incision made along the natural crease below the breasts, the periareolar incision made at or near the lower margin of the areola, and the transaxillary incision made in the armpit. Though each has its advantages and disadvantages, Dr. Mills notes that he greatly prefers to employ the transaxillary incision due to the variety of advantages it offers to most patients.
According to the Orange County plastic surgeon, can include:
The least conspicuous scar of all incision options
A reduced chance of bacterial contamination
A decreased risk of capsular contracture
A diminished possibility of losing sensation in the nipples
The ability to place every implant type, size, and shape
The ability to position implants above or below the chest muscle
To conduct breast augmentation surgery using the transaxillary approach, Dr. Mills explains that a small incision is concealed in the highest crease of the patient''s armpit. As noted in a , "The length of this incision will depend on the type of implant being placed. For example, saline implants can generally be placed through a 3 cm incision whereas traditional silicone implants typically necessitate an incision approximately 4.5 cm in length." Once inserted, the implants can be situated above or below the muscle, though Dr. Mills says he positions virtually all implants submuscularly as the are abundant. For most patients, he adds, the resulting scar heals so well it is often indistinguishable from a natural crease in the armpit.
Since the transaxillary incision never comes in contact with breast tissue, Dr. Mills states that he has found a significantly reduced chance of implant bacterial contamination, as well as a decreased occurrence of capsular contracture. Furthermore, he discloses that this approach can provide the smallest risk of losing nipple sensation because of how far the incision location is from the nerve extending to the nipple.
Ultimately, Dr. Mills notes that several studies have revealed women receiving breast implants have a statistically higher preference for the transaxillary incision. "I have performed thousands of transaxillary breast augmentation procedures," he adds, "beginning when I was in plastic surgical residency in 1985. I have even been invited to perform live surgery using this technique on three continents for various plastic surgery organizations. In my opinion, there isn''t a bad indication for this incision."
