Abstract:
Background: Breast augmentation is the one of the most frequently performed aesthetic surgical procedures in the world. The most important preoperative decisions with influence on the final appearance of the augmented breast are the breast implant pocket choice and selection of the most appropriate implant. Described pocket locations are subglandular , subfascial, partial retropectoral, total submuscular and dual plane. Objectives: We introduced new method of pocket forming/location for implant placement, which is combination of Tebbett’s dual-plane 2 or 3 and Graf ’s subfascial. Matherial and Methods: Between January 2016 and April 2019, 36 patients were operated using dual plane subfascial breast augmentation. Pinch test in medial pole less than 2,0 cm and in upper pole less than 2,5 cm are indications for this technique. In our modification, dissected flap in front of the muscle is fasciocutaneous and it provides better coverage especially in thin patient with small amount of subcutaneous fat. Results: Hematoma and infection didn’t occur in any patient from our study. In two patients occur a capsular contracture gradus I/II without the need for reoperation. Palpability of implants is recorded in three patients. Conclusion: Dual plane subfascial is good option in primary and secondary breast augmentation with a well set indication especially in the breasts with the upper pinch test less than 20 mm. Key words: dual plane subfascial , implant placement, new method.
