(iHealthWire.Org) – CULVER CITY, CALIF – April 5, 2007 – Breast Implants USA – Dr. Michael Gartner utilizes a specialized technique called Transumbilical Breast Augmentation or TUBA, which places the implant through the navel to minimize scarring, quicker surgery and recovery time, and no cutting of the breast tissue which leads to less risk of nerve damage to the nipple.

Dr. Gartner explains, “The surgery has created a lot of controversy in the past by surgeons and patients. Surgeons who have not been trained in the technique deny its efficacy even though there are less complications and less physical stress to the patient. Many patients sometimes fear that it may distort their navel or abdomen. Although this is theoretically possible, in skilled hands it would be extremely rare. I have performed Transumbilical Breast Augmentation on runway models that were back on the catwalk in one week.”

Typical breast augmentation procedures leave visible scars on the breast or armpit. The navel is a natural scar from birth and the incision is completely hidden. Using special instruments the insertion area for the implant is expanded. This leaves no scars on the breasts, because there is no cutting on the breasts, less interruption of the breast tissue, less risk of bleeding and because it is less invasive, the recovery time is much quicker. The surgery also takes place over a shorter amount of time, making it safer with less anesthesia risks.
