Breast Augmentation procedures are performed in a
hospital and it is advisable to discuss with your Doctor and
anaesthetist, the type of anaesthesia, whether general (fully
asleep), local (awake with numbing of the area) or a combination of
laical with mild sedation (partially awake). The risks of each type
should be fully explained and understood.
There are three types of
incisions used for inserting breast implants:
- An inframammary incision is made under the breast at the fold or crease line. This is the most common incision.
A periareolar incision is made around the edge of the areola (the darker skin)
- An axillary incision is made in one of the crease lines of the armpit.
Dr Rastogi prefers to use the
inframammary incision, as he feels this gives the best access to the
breast tissue.
Dr Rastogi uses silicone
cohesive gel implants that have the consistency of ‘turkish
delight’.
