Preservative Breast Augmentation: Preserving Muscle-glandular unions by areolar approach.

Preserving the anatomy and function of the glandular muscle unit leads to the preservation of the breast glands and the creation of more stable sub-muscular mammary pockets. This results in implants with greater muscle-glandular coverage throughout their entire extent and significantly reduces glandular atrophy. These advantages distinguish the technique and make it highly reproducible, with a short learning curve.

Abstract

Preserving the anatomy and function of the glandular muscle unit leads to the preservation of the breast glands and the creation of more stable sub-muscular mammary pockets. This results in implants with greater muscle-glandular coverage throughout their entire extent and significantly reduces glandular atrophy. These advantages distinguish the technique and make it highly reproducible, with a short learning curve.
