There are currently 4 options for implant placement into the body for a breast augmentation.
- The umbilical (currently not recommended by the implant manufactures)
- The axillary approach (armpit)
- The areola (around the nipple)
- and the inframammary (under the breast) in the breast fold.
Each option has its advantages and disadvantages and the options suiting your individual breast type will be discussed at your initial consultation.
