Many techniques are now available for your breast augmentationbut which one to choose? Dr. Duclos has specialized for 20 years in the revision or revision of breast augmentation surgeries. The women come from all over Quebec. During your pre-operative interview with Dre Duclos, you will need to review several points including:
- the type of scar (see the axillary route, the hemi-areolar route and the inframammary route ),
- the choice of filling,
- the shape of the implant and
- the size of the prostheses.
Today we will talk about the positioning of your prosthesis with the Dual plane, dual plane or even bi-plane approach. Three words to talk about the same thing. At Dr. Duclos’ cosmetic surgery clinic we favor this approach which demonstrates numerous advantages. The dual plane technique comes from the American Doctor Dr Tebbets from Texas who described this technique he about twenty years ago.
Positioning of the prosthesis with the Dual plan technique
Each person is different and depending on your anatomy, Dr. Duclos will advise you on the positioning of your prostheses. With the Dual Plane technique, two techniques are combined by positioning the implant on 2 different anatomical planes.
The foreground is behind the pectoralis major muscle. Placing the prosthesis in this location allows the contours of the prosthesis to be masked. The second plane is in the lower half of the prosthesis placed just behind the mammary gland.
The illustration opposite represents a partial submuscular placement which is the most commonly used technique for those who have a normal shape and who do not have chest sagging to correct.
Why use the Dual-plane technique?
It should generally be remembered that the dual-plane technique provides an optimal natural result by masking the contours of the prosthesis. In cases of breast augmentation with another technique we note that under the effect of contraction of the pectoral muscle the prosthesis adapts less well with the mammary gland. Therefore your breasts will look more natural after the procedure compared to other positions of the prosthesis. Breast prostheses</a > in dual plane are also much less perceptible to the touch.
