Robert Whitfield MD explains two surgical approaches to minimize scars after breast implant removal. A periareolar incision with lift leaves one scar around the areola and tightens stretched skin. A vertical lollipop incision removes excess skin while preserving tissue, trading a single scar for better shape.
And then of course, I can take.
Things out through a periareolar incision. Obviously, Danica.
Patrick talked.
About this when.
She explained her explant journey and how it was done. The then ramifications.
Of doing these different types of procedures.
We'Ll take them one by one. So if.
You just do a periareolar, I'm typically going to do a periareolar lift with it so that I can.
Diminish the.
Stretched out areola.
If that's the case.
Because typically.
You want to downsize it to match a smaller breast so that.
Can be done at the same time.
So that leaves you just with one.
Scar pattern around.
The outside of the areola. Then we discussed.
The vertical, which gonna.
Leave you with a.
Lollipop type scar, but allows you to take out excess.
Skin and.
Tissue.
Not breast tissue, but, you know, a little excess fatty tissue and mostly skin, so that you want to preserve breast tissue in that instance.
