What Is Transaxillary Breast Augmentation?
Transaxillary breast augmentation is an approach to breast enhancement that involves making a small incision in the axilla, or the crease of the armpit area. This advanced breast augmentation procedure at Northwestern Specialists in Plastic Surgery makes it possible to achieve rounder, fuller breasts with minimal scarring and easier aftercare. This technique may be especially beneficial for women struggling with uneven or "deflated" breasts who might not be interested in more invasive surgical methods. To learn more about the different approaches to breast augmentation we offer at our Chicago, IL practice, schedule your private consultation with our team today. We're committed to help you achieve a body you're proud of.
How Is Transaxillary Breast Augmentation Performed?
While transaxillary breast augmentation is less invasive than other methods, we will still use general anesthesia to keep you comfortable. Once you're sedated, we'll make a small incision in the armpit, which we will use to insert the breast implant. Depending on your needs and goals, the implant will be placed under the chest muscle (submuscular) or above it (subglandular). During your consultation, we'll discuss the benefits of each approach and which one is ideal for your aesthetic goals. Once we're done, you'll be moved to a recovery room, where we'll monitor your healing and review aftercare instructions once you're awake and alert. With proper care, the recovery after transaxillary breast augmentation is generally smooth and quick.
What Are the Benefits of Transaxillary Breast Augmentation?

- Scarring is minimal and easily hidden

Transaxillary Breast Aug Reviews
I had a breast augmentation with Clark and Monika, his PA, a month ago and I am pleased to say I could not be more thrilled with my results. From the initial consultation to post surgery I felt calm and confident with these two as my providers. The whole experience was above and beyond! I am very grateful I found Clark and Monika. Thank you to the whole team at NSPS and at the surgery center!
Dr. Schierle and his team are THE BEST!! I got breast augmentation on January 9th. It’s Perfect! Love my new look! I feel more confidence now than before. Thank you again for your best work.
Dr. Moradian performed an incredible job! He’s one of the sweetest and compassionate doctors/surgeons I’ve ever encountered. He made me feel incredibly comfortable and relieved, putting all my anxieties to rest. I underwent a transaxillary breast augmentation, and I’m thrilled with the results. All of my friends and family are blown away by my outcome. I have a new sense of confidence that has changed my life. While I was in my recovery room, Dr. Moradian not only took care of me but also spoke to my family and answered all their questions. He exudes a sense of safety and ensures that you receive the best possible outcomes. He took the time to personally check up on me and kindly encouraged me to reach out to him. Dr. Moradian genuinely cares about your concerns and takes the time to explain everything in detail. I am so fortunate to have found him!
