SUBFASCIAL BREAST AUGMENTATION |
|
A third option instead of over or under
the muscle is called “subfascial”
and has recently been reported (pronounced like
"fashion" without the "n"),
which is a sort of compromise between the two.
Although it is thin, it is usually substantial
enough to provide a layer behind the breast and
in front of the implant.The subfascial position
prevents the stuck on appearance caused by the
interruption of the clavicle to nipple line just
as the submuscular does. It is a little less potent
in this because it is not as thick as the muscle.
The subfascial is definitely less injury to the
patient than the submuscular. The patient is less
uncomfortable and the healing process is much
quicker. Also, it prevents the muscle movement
that is sometimes visible after submuscular. The
subfascial position prevents rippling above the
areola just as the submuscular position does and
probably as well. We are offering the subfascial
option in selected cases. If you would like to
know more, we would be happy to discuss it in
consultation. |
