Breast Augmentation Many female friends pay much attention to breast sagging, although breast is an extremely private part, but its problem in the psychology of its to quite important color. In case of mild breast ptosis, breast augmentation can be done in case of glandular dysplasia, and the result will be better. The implant can be placed by incision at the upper edge of the areola. After successful anesthesia, an incision is made at the edge of the areola or in the armpit, through which the pectoralis major muscle is reached, and behind the pectoralis major muscle, a cavity slightly larger than the implant is peeled off, and finally the breast implant is placed, and the incision is carefully closed with sutures. The skin above the incision can also be excised in a half-moon shape to achieve a more adequate correction of ptosis. This approach is also applicable to pseudo breast ptosis. However, the role of the implant is mainly used to fill the sagging skin bra, so this type of approach is not suitable for patients with moderate and severe ptosis, and the results are not good. It is important to note that the sagging skin must be corrected first during the surgery, otherwise a bimaxillary breast deformity will occur after the surgery, which is a result of the poor mobility of the implant, leading to the deformity.
