The author contends that an important reason to choose the endoscopic transaxillary technique for breast augmentation is the avoidance of scars on the aesthetic unit of the breast. Other advantages include increased precision in creating the pocket, providing a well-shaped inframammary fold; reduced bleeding; less postoperative pain; and a shorter convalescence.
