Answer: Arm pit entrance Thank you very much for this question. The incision in the axilla as the advantage that it is quite a concealed however and it has largely been left because of its disadvantages. That is for example the relative far distance to the area that is prone to bleeding. In order to place the implants under the muscle the muscle has to be detached on it's lower and and this can cause bleeding. Because of this less than perfect accessibility this entrance for in a silicone implant can be challenging. I would advise you to speak with your plastic surgeon and let him determine which incision would be ideal for you. Have a wonderful day and greetings from the beautiful island of Jamaica.

Answer: Armpit incisions Thank you for your questions. There are several incisions that can be used for you BA surgery. One of them is the trans-axillary incision which is well hidden in the hair bearing area of your arm pits. I have used a keller funnel for this as it helps avoid skin contact and trauma to the implant. An in person consultation and evaluation is a good starting point. Be sure to see a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon (ABPS) who can spend time with you and help you get your desired look.Sincerely,Benjamin J.
