If a primary breast augmentation is done through the armpit, can a second surgery to increase size be done through the same incision site of the armpit?

Answer: Possible to use same breast augmentation incision If you're exchanging implants, it is possible to use a transaxillary incision to perform the procedure. If you need pocket revision or something more involved than just an exchange, typically another approach is required. Hope this helps! Dr. Kaufman

Answer: Breast Implant exchange Certainly the same incision can be used to replace implants provided that there is no significant capsule or other problems with the pocket. It is very hard to correct problems from a transaxillary approach.
