The "triple-plane technique" for breast augmentation

Breast augmentation is one of the most frequently performed aesthetic surgery procedures. In the United States, it is the second most commonly performed aesthetic surgery procedure among women, according to the American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery statistics. Different choices available to the surgeon deal with the pocket plane, the skin incisions, and the type of implant. This report describes the results from a retrospective review of the authors' experience with the "triple-plane technique" and its different indications according to breast types. Findings have shown that this technique is suitable for many different types, shapes, and sizes of breasts; that it offers very good and natural results; and particularly, that these results last over time.
