Is Breast Augmentation Through Tummy Tuck Incision Possible?

October 6, 2009
Asked By:nomorebigbelly in Crown Point, IN

I had read of a procedure that allows a breast augmentation while doing a tummy tuck, using the tummy tuck incision rather than incising the breast. Is this a commonly used procedure? Would it be as accurate placement if it was done using this method?
