INSERTION AND PLACEMENT OF THE IMPLANT

 

INSERTION AND PLACEMENT OF THE IMPLANT

After the incision is made, Dr. Hayduke carefully creates a pocket either:

  • under the muscle (partial subpectoral placement) OR
  • over the muscle (directly behind the breast tissue, also known as submammary/ subglandular placement)

The method for inserting and specific positioning of your implants will be discussed during your consultation with Dr. Hayduke and will depend upon the type of implant you choose, degree of enlargement desired, your unique body type, amount of existing breast tissue present and your own personal preference. The most common modern day positioning choice is “under the muscle” (partial subpectoral). For those particular patients who specifically request the transaxillary (underarm) approach – Dr. Hayduke uses his own endoscopic transaxillary equipment to meticulously create the pocket under magnified video screen endoscopic guidance. It is more common, however, for patients to request the inframammary (under the natural breast crease) or peri-areolar (around the areola) incision. Dr Hayduke offers all these options to his clients.

CLOSING THE INCISIONS

Incisions are closed with layered absorbable sutures in both the breast tissue and skin. Staples are not used and the sutures will eventually disappear on their own. External surgical adhesive tape is then applied for a second layer of reinforcement. Over time, the incisional scars usually lighten in color and flatten.
