<\/span><\/h2>\nPerforming a\u00a0breast implant through <\/strong>the armpit<\/strong> demands exceptional skill and specialized instruments (endoscopy). Because the surgeon cannot view the pocket directly with the naked eye, modern surgical standards dictate the strict use of advanced video equipment.<\/p>\n<\/span>HD Camera Guidance Is Mandatory<\/span><\/h3>\nHistorically, transaxillary surgery was performed using blind blunt dissection, which increased the risk of asymmetry and internal bleeding. Today, high-definition\u00a0endoscopic guidance<\/strong>\u00a0has revolutionized patient safety:<\/p>\n\n- The surgeon inserts a tiny high-definition camera into the axillary tunnel, projecting images of nerves, blood vessels, and muscle tissue onto a monitor.<\/li>\n
- Direct visualization allows the surgeon to cauterize tiny blood vessels in real time, reducing post-op bleeding and hematoma.<\/li>\n
- The endoscopic camera ensures both internal pockets are sculpted at identical depths and boundaries, guaranteeingsymmetrical results.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
<\/span>Dual-Plane vs. Subglandular Implant Placement<\/span><\/h3>\nAt Doku Clinic, we usually recommend the dual-plane technique for breast implant placement, which delivers a natural slope and soft feel to breasts:<\/p>\n
\n- Dual-Plane Placement:<\/strong>The upper two-thirds of the breast implant sits beneath the\u00a0pectoralis major muscle<\/strong>, while the lower pole sits directly behind breast tissue.<\/li>\n
- Subglandular Placement:<\/strong>Positioned entirely above the muscle. While technically simpler, it carries a higher risk of visible implant contours in slender patients. It is also less common via the axilla.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
<\/span>The Keller Funnel Technique<\/span><\/h3>\nThe introduction of the\u00a0Keller Funnel\u00ae<\/strong> has also transformed how silicone implants are inserted:<\/p>\n\n- The implant glides from the sterile sleeve directly into the breast pocket without contacting the patient’s skin.<\/li>\n
- Using a funnel allows high-cohesive silicone gel implants to squeeze through a smaller incision (oftenunder 3 cm<\/strong>).<\/li>\n
- The Keller Funnel technique<\/strong> minimizes trauma to surrounding axillary tissue.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
<\/span>Benefits vs. Risks of Armpit Breast Augmentation<\/span><\/h2>\nEvery surgical procedure involves balancing advantages and disadvantages.\u00a0Transaxillary breast augmentation<\/strong> is no exception. <\/strong>It offers scar concealment, but patients must understand its safety and risks before making a decision.<\/p>\n<\/span>Benefits of Breast Augmentation Through the Armpit<\/span><\/h3>\nChoosing a\u00a0breast implant through armpit<\/strong> provides clear advantages for body image and long-term health:<\/p>\n\n- Complete Breast Preservation<\/strong><\/li>\n
