Q: Can one avoid a vertical scar in a Breast Augmentation?

A:

Hi there-

In cases like yours, where the nipple is still facing forward, but the breast tissue has sagged a bit behind it, I have had excellent results using a modified lifting technique approached only through the fold under the breasts, depending on your goals for shape and size.

Discuss options with your surgeon and proceed with the option he/she and you are most comfortable with- remembering that the shape of the breasts is THE most important thing...

In other words, if your breasts have a funny shape, but you have a small cute scar, you won't be happy, right?

Better to have lovely breasts.
