Breast augmentation is a very common procedure. The most common implants placed in our practice are smooth round silicone gel mammary prosthesis. In general, we tell patients that they can get the longest life out of their implants with the fewest complications if they choose an implant that is the right size for their body. This is often based on the amount and thickness of the breast tissue in the upper pole of the breast.
The photograph demonstrates before and after breast augmentation with a silicone gel mammary prosthesis via the trans-axillary approach.
