    Subfascial Axillary Hybrid Breast Augmentation: Technical Highlights and Step-by-Step Video Guide
    (2023) MUNHOZ, Alexandre Mendonca; NETO, Ary de Azevedo Marques; MAXIMILIANO, Joao
    Advances in breast augmentation techniques have led to safety improvements and better aesthetic results. The concurrent combination of the axillary approach with a subfascial pocket has been suggested for augmentation procedures, because it avoids breast scarring and the limitations of submuscular positioning represented by breast animation when the pectoral muscle is contracted. With the improvement of autogenous fat grafting techniques, new implant coverage options and more natural results have been proposed with more superficial implant pockets; simultaneous autogenous fat grafting with silicone implants (defined as hybrid breast augmentation) has recently been evaluated as a promising technique. Combining these two procedures allows core volume projection and natural cleavage while camouflaging implant edges. Fat grafting is also useful in reducing intermammary distance and achieving a smaller and smoother transition between the breasts. This article and the accompanying videos provide a detailed, step-by-step guide to hybrid breast augmentation using a subfascial axillary approach, with a predictable and optimized surgical outcome.

    Reoperative Transaxillary Subfascial Breast Augmentation and Fat Grafting: Technical Highlights and a Step-by-Step Video Guide
    (2023) MUNHOZ, Alexandre Mendonca; MARQUES NETO, Ary de Azevedo; MAXIMILIANO, Joao
    Reoperative procedures after breast augmentation are frequently more complex than primary cases because of local complications and insufficient soft-tissue coverage. Although the transaxillary incision is often indicated in primary breast augmentation, limitations of this approach include secondary surgery and correcting complications after using this approach via the same incision. Combining the transaxillary technique with a subfascial pocket has been suggested to avoid breast scarring and the limitations of submuscular pockets represented by breast animation. With advances in autogenous fat grafting (AFG) techniques, implant coverage alternatives and more natural outcomes have been reported from more superficial implant pockets. Simultaneous AFG with silicone implants (defined as hybrid breast augmentation) has been evaluated recently as an attractive procedure. These two techniques combine to provide breast projection and natural cleavage while camouflaging implant edges. AFG is also important to reduce the intermammary distance and achieve a smoother transition between the breasts. The transaxillary approach can be useful in reoperative breast augmentation and avoids additional scarring on the breast. This article and the accompanying videos provide a detailed, step-by-step guide to reoperative hybrid breast augmentation using a subfascial transaxillary approach, with a predictable and optimized surgical outcome.
