Bay Area Breast Augmentation Surgery

Bay Area Breast Augmentation surgeon Dr. Joseph Mele offers several approaches to Breast Enhancement. Periareolar (around the areola) and Inframammory (in the breast crease) incisions provide both discrete access and the best direct view of the breast implant pocket. This increases the predictability and the safety of your surgery.

Pre-filled silicone breast implants should only be inserted through the Periareolar or Inframmamory incision to minimize trauma to the breast implant's shell. Saline implants can also be inserted through these incisions or via Axillary (through the armpit) and Umbilical or “TUBA” (through the belly button) incisions, because they are filled after placement. Unfortunately, the later incisions provide less predictability. Both types of implants can be placed behind or in front of the pectoralis muscle (breast muscle). Behind the muscle (submuscular) placement usually gives a more natural, tapered appearance to the upper breast. San Francisco Breast Augmentation doctor, Dr. Joseph Mele, offers a wide range of choices in smooth or textured, round or (teardrop) shaped and saline or silicone filled breast implants.

Bay Area Breast Implants patients are able to achieve an improvement in the size and shape of the breasts with the help of Dr. Mele.
