John Bostwick, III, MD Atlanta, GA Felmont F. Eaves, III, MD Atlanta, GA Foad Nahai, MD Atlanta, GA Minimally invasive surgical techniques based on video endoscopic technologies have become increasingly popular over the past several years. Although most commonly used in facial rejuvenation procedures, the endoscope has been a helpful adjunct for augmentation mammaplasty over the past 3 years. The rationale for using the endoscope in augmentation mammaplasty is based on the observation that it can provide clear visualization of soft tissue pockets through small incisions remote from the pocket itself. This visualization promotes precise dissection and hemostasis. Because visualization is most limited with the transaxillary augmentation, we have found endoscopic techniques most applicable through this route, and occasionally helpful with an inframammary approach. 1,2 Others 3,4 have described endoscopic techniques through circumareolar and transumbilical approaches. In an endoscopically assisted transaxillary augmentation …
