Type of incision

​

The best incision will be chosen by Dr. Rodriguez according to the case, we have several options among the most common are mentioned the following:

Growing: Above the areola, only for minimum lifting, in which with the use of breast implants the adequate shape and volume is achieved.

​

Periareolar or Benelli: Consists of making an incision around the areola where the surplus of skin and areola is removed as well as having the possibility of modifying the shape of the breast if necessary.

​

Vertical: The same periareolar adjustment is made, it is also accompanied by a vertical incision where skin and breast tissue are removed with a better remodeling of the same.

​

In anchor: It is the complete lifting of the bust, suitable when a greater resection of glandular tissue and skin along with superior migration of the areola is needed.
