Transaxillary Pros and Cons?

December 1, 2015
Asked By:Julie2158 in California, CA

I'm 5'3'' weighing 98 lbs. I'm very petite with a small frame. I wanted much larger breasts and was hoping for silicone implants at 450cc to 475cc. Would such a large implant be able to be inserted through the armpit? I've read that if the implant is too large, it wouldn't be a good incision location. Also, would the shape be affected through the armpit? Which incision location is best for optimal implant placement? Thanks!
