Can I get periareolar breast implants?

Question

Can a female with large natural breast get implants periareolar? Would the implants be inserted behind or between the muscle if periareolar?

Michael Constantin Gartner, DO · Answer

The main determination as to whether the implants can be placed through the periareolar incision is the size of your areolae. Therefore, you would need to see a surgeon to determine whether this is possible for you. It is possible to place the implants behind the muscle.

Richard Baxter, MD · Answer

Placement of implants through the periareolar incision depends on the diameter of the areolas and the size and type of the implant. Under muscle is not a problem through this approach.

William Andrade, MD · Answer

Thanks for your inquiry.  It is possible to insert implants through a periareolar incision, in a female who has larger breasts and areolae.  The implants can be inserted in front or behind the muscle.

Vincent N. Zubowicz, MD · Answer

I seldom do periareolar incisions anymore but when the patient chooses this is no problem putting the implants above or below the muscle.

Hector Milla, MD · Answer

Hi and thanks for your question. It depends on the size of your areola. Implants can be placed either over or under the muscle by this approach. The other important issue if you have large breast is that you may have ptosis and it could be necessary to do something else and maybe periareolar incision wouldn't be the best option. You need to see your PS for an evaluation and better answering to your doubts.Regards.
