Breast Augmentation (Implants)

Dr. Yovino prefers the trans-axillary approach for inserting breast implants, which results in no scars on the breast. Although not all patients are candidates for this approach, it is an option for most patients.

The trans-axillary approach utilizes a very small incision in the axilla (under-arm or armpit) to perform the entire procedure. After a few months, the resulting scar blends in and becomes difficult to see even when the person lifts their arms up.

Likewise, whenever possible, Dr. Yovino prefers to insert the implants behind the Pectoralis Major Muscle. This results in a more natural look with fewer post-operative complications.

Various choices are available in breast implant surgery. All of these choices will be discussed by Dr. Yovino personally with each patient at the pre-surgical visit. The best options for each individual patient will be decided by the patient with Dr. Yovino’s advice. The patient will be in control throughout the decision-making process.
