Is it true that the recovery time for transaxiliary incision is faster then other methods? Especially for mubmuscular placement of the implant since there're no cutting of the muscle?

Answer: Breast augmentation transaxillary incision recovery time? I perform all of the approaches and incisions for breast augmentation and the pain will come from muscle dissection which is necessary in all methods, including the transaxillary approach.Kenneth Hughes, MDLos Angeles, CA

Answer: BA Recovery Good question. Trans-axillary incisions for breast augmentation certainly have the benefit of not leaving a scar on the breast, but there are some other problems. First, I do think it is a bit more uncomfortable because there is a larger area of dissection, and it causes a bit more inflammation. The least amount of dissection -- and, I believe, the least amount of discomfort -- is from an infra-mammary incision (under the breast). Hope this helps.
