The incision placement will depend upon each patient’s circumstances, and will be decided in your consultation with Dr. Morales. The inframammary approach is typically faster, safer to perform, and associated with fewer complications with future breastfeeding. The periareolar placement involves a less visible scar, but is associated with widening of the scar, and increases breastfeeding complications. The axillary approach is technically more difficult, takes longer to perform, and has a higher risk of complications of bleeding.
