Breast Augmentation

Although Breast Augmentation surgery is a common procedure performed by many plastic surgeons, only a very select few offer the “Scarless Breast Augmentation”. 

This is also known as an Endoscopic Breast Augmentation or Transaxillary Breast Augmentation.

The implants can be placed through the under arms and the incision hidden in a fold to provide an augmentation without leaving any scars on the breasts.

While some perform this procedure utilizing instruments to rip the muscles to create the pocket, Dr. Edwin Kwon utilizes an endoscope camera to directly visualize the pocket and carefully divide the muscle using the cautery to create a precise pocket, decrease bleeding, pain, and risk of capsular contracture.
