Breast Enlargement through the Belly ButtonBreast enlargement through the belly button is one method of achieving breast augmentation using saline breast implants. This surgery uses a transumbilical approach which means that the entry wound is placed inside the natural upper fold of the navel. The procedure is commonly called TUBA which stands for transumbilical breast augmentation.
TUBA
is only one method of utilizing saline breast implants to increase
breast size
and
fullness.
The other common approaches use incisions placed in the breast fold
(inframammary),
around the lower portion of the areola
(periareolar),
or under the arm
(transaxillary).
By making good use of the body’s natural scar, the belly button, TUBA is performed in such a manner as to leave no visible evidence of surgery. There are no obvious
scars
using the transumbilical approach. This is medical genius at its finest and especially wonderful for women who have a tendency to scar prominently. The other surgical approaches will all leave scars either on the
areola,
under the breast or in the armpit.
Saline implants are the only variety currently used for TUBA procedures. Saline implants can be inserted flat and folded in their natural unfilled state. This allows the
cosmetic surgeon
to use a very small surgical incision. Unfortunately,
silicone breast implants
come pre-filled and cannot fit into the body using this surgical approach. Saline breast implants do not have the same realistic feel as silicone prostheses, but if placed properly, they can achieve excellent results and do not come with the past stigma of problematic health concerns.
