Learning About Transaxillary Endoscopic Breast Augmentation

Transaxillary endoscopic breast augmentations are the new procedure women are choosing when they want larger, fuller breasts with breast implants. The major benefit this procedure provides is a virtually nonexistent scar, making it your little secret. You will need to speak with a cosmetic surgeon to learn if this procedure is right for you and will give you the results you desire.

One drawback to this surgery is that it limits the sizes of breast implants a woman can use. Therefore, you will get a more natural look due to not being able to use larger breast implants. You will need to discuss what cup sizes you want with your breast augmentation in Houston

Benefit from a Minimally Invasive Surgery

Invasive surgery is hard on your body. Anyway, you can make it easier will mean there is less recovery time for you. Transaxillary endoscopic breast augmentation is a minimally invasive breast augmentation because it uses an endoscopic that is moved through a small incision deep in the armpit. There will not be any scarring on the breast at all, which will give you a natural look that many women want.

One major advantage to this type of breast augmentation is that the recovery time is only five to seven days. In fact, many patients become active after two days and do not suffer from long-term effects. As long as the incision on the armpit is washed every day and you use an antibacterial cream, the possibility of getting an infection is minimal.

All breast implant procedures run the risk of needing to have adjustments made in the future. The same goes for this type of surgery, but if adjustments are needed then the same procedure can be used to keep scarring minimal. If severe leaking occurs, there may need to be an incision on the breast itself but this rarely occurs with proper care.
