Umbilical Breast Augmetation Surgery - Amy & Dr. Kim Talk About Her Experience

http://beverlyhillsplasticsurgery.com

My initial umbilical breast augmentation went great giving me full C's. After enjoying them for several months I decided I wanted to go larger.

Dr. Kim of Beverly Hills Aesthetic Plastic surgery was able to perform the revision surgery using the umbilical method. He was able to remove my old implants through my belly button and insert the new ones.

I couldn't be happier with the results and am amazed he was able to do everything with this no scar method.

Also known as breast augmentation or augmentation mammoplasty, breast enlargement can help women who are unhappy with the size or shape of their breasts. For many women, breast size is an important part of feeling good, desirable and normal. Having a breast augmentation can greatly improve self-esteem in these cases.

Augmentation mammaplasty is expected to take approximately one hour, and will be performed under a general anesthetic (puts you to sleep). During this cosmetic surgery procedure, a small incision will be made. This is where the doctor will create a pocket in which the implant will be inserted.

Typically, a breast implant can be inserted either under the breast tissue (over the muscle) or under the breast muscle (further below the breast tissue). With the intention of minimizing scaring, incisions can be made in either the armpit (transaxillary incision), along the areola (the darker skin surrounding the nipple known as the periareolar incision), or under the breast at the crease. Depending on the implant and surgeon's preference, an incision can also be made in the belly button to insert the implant (transumbilical breast augmentation or TUBA). The exact location of the implant will depend on your anatomy, the look you want to achieve, and your doctor's recommendation.
