Endoscopic Assisted Breast Augmentation
Breast augmentation surgery is one of the most popular cosmetic procedures that have evolved over time. Now, the goals of cosmetic surgery procedures are to safely minimize scarring and endoscopic assisted breast augmentation can help achieve this. Endoscopic plastic surgery was introduced in the 1990s and has been successful in achieving desired aesthetic beauty when endoscopic assisted breast augmentation is sought.
With an endoscopic assisted breast augmentation, the scars are much more likely to be hidden because the incisions are smaller. During an endoscopic assisted breast augmentation, a few small incisions is all that is needed in order to allow room for the endoscope and other essential endoscopic assisted breast augmentation tools. The advantage of endoscopic assisted breast augmentation is that the endoscope, a small tubular probe, has a light and a camera attached to allow the plastic surgeon to view a screen while operating.
In a recent ASAPS survey that will be presented to the FDA, 94% of women surveyed said they would recommend breast augmentation to others. The introduction of endoscopic assisted breast augmentation, along with other breast enhancement options, has allowed women to have a greater chance of meeting their breast augmentation goals. More and more women are finding they feel better about themselves after seeking an endoscopic assisted breast augmentation because the information available to make an educated decision about the procedure continues to grow.

Expansion-Augmentation
Expansion-augmentation was first developed for reconstructive reasons but was soon used for cosmetic reasons as well. After years of development, expansion-augmentation will now normally involve a permanent saline expander. When using the expansion-augmentation technique, the expansion-augmentation patient has the ability to adjust the final size post-operatively.
According to the conclusion of a three-year study following women with breast implants, it was shown that a large amount of women returned to plastic surgeons in order to change the implant size. The advantage of choosing the expansion-augmentation technique is that it will allow the women to more easily alter her implants to a more desirable result.
Another advantage of expansion-augmentation is that it is able to better adjust breast asymmetries that can commonly exist. Using expansion-augmentation, volume differences, nipple positions, base widths, and ptosis or pseudoptosis can be more appropriately attuned, which can be difficult to achieve with alternate breast augmentation techniques.
Since every woman will have individual factors influencing how the breast augmentation will turn out, expansion-augmentation has the ability to allow for a more predictable outcome. Some women's breast augmentation results will be influenced by their natural shape and personal traits, as well as by the surgical procedure like scarring and other unforeseeable results, expansion-augmentation might be a good option for women that have risk of producing unpredictable outcomes.
All surgical procedures carry benefits and risks, and expansion-augmentation should only be considered for qualified patients.

Scarless Breast Augmentation
There are different breast augmentation techniques and preferences, and depending on the surgeon's particular opinions and the patient's goals, scarless breast augmentation may be a consideration. With scarless breast augmentation, there must be certain individual criteria that must be met. Scarless breast augmentation has a lot of benefits for patients desiring a certain type of look.
After first being completely evaluated, the surgeon will then be able to assess if that individual is a candidate for scarless breast augmentation. Scarless breast augmentation uses a process of going through the belly button in order to avoid scarring. The newer breast augmentation technique called scarless breast augmentation can allow for the elimination of scars directly in the breast area. By going through the belly button, the scarless breast augmentation will appear more natural.
The surgeon will tell the patient of the requirements for being able to undergo scarless breast augmentation. Since the majority of breast augmentation patients are wishing to reverse the signs of aging and sagging breasts, scarless breast augmentation may not be an option. Scarless breast augmentations can only add breast implants and not lift the breast, as many patients will choose to have performed together, so there cannot be any droopiness before the surgery. In addition, there must be enough breast tissue so that the implant can be covered.
If the option is present, scarless breast augmentation can allow for a quicker recovery and less pain than traditional breast augmentation. A very quick surgery, scarless breast augmentation can be a great option for patients that cannot afford to take an extended amount of time off. This allows for scarless breast augmentation patients to return to a work environment within a couple days. Just a small scar in the naval area will be left from the scarless breast augmentation.
Breast augmentations give women the option of having the implant put above or beneath the muscle, but in scarless breast augmentation the implant can only go above the muscle. As with any other cosmetic procedure, there are both benefits and risks to scarless breast augmentation. Depending on existent factors and what the patient's goals are, scarless breast augmentation can have a very natural, minimal physical impact, and aesthetically pleasing effect.

Subglandular Breast Augmentation
The location of a breast augmentation implant has been debated, with some arguing for subglandular breast augmentations and other arguing for subpectoral. Subglandular breast augmentation, or over the muscle implants has many arguments in its support. With the growing acceptance of and greater number of women seeking breast augmentation, having the option of subglandular breast augmentation as well as other techniques allow for individual preferences and traits to be best considered.
Subglandular breast augmentation avoids having to cut the muscle for the implant and risking injury to the pectoralis muscle. There is a reduced risk of postoperative bleeding with subglandular breast augmentation as well, in addition to a lesser degree of pain. Depending on patient preference and surgeon recommendation, a subglandular breast augmentation may be suitable and provide the aesthetic look desired.
Normally, subglandular breast augmentation will not be performed on very small-breasted women under a B cup size. Subglandular breast augmentation is often administered in women with sagging breasts and heavier body frames. A proper and thorough evaluation must first be performed to determine if subglandular breast augmentation would fulfill the patient's desired look in a safe manner.
