By far the best way to insert a breast implant is under the chest (pectoral) muscle. This technique gives a more natural look and makes it easier to breast feed after surgery if a patient desires to do so. The risk of capsular contracture (scar tissue) is also lower when implants are placed under the muscle compared to over the muscle. The interpretation of mammograms is more difficult when implants are on top of the chest muscle, yet another reason to avoid this location.

“Dr Bruno is a true artist! I had 2 big procedures done: tummy tuck and breast lift with revision and I was amazed by his attention to detail. He is advanced and skilled. I went to a few consultations with other plastic surgeons…but found Dr Bruno to be the best most recommended. His before and after photos also confirmed for me that I’m making the right choice. The recovery with him was amazing. His staff is very knowledgeable and friendly as well. They made the financials straight through and we’re not pushy or aggressive. I highly recommend him!”
