If you are seriously considering breast augmentation, but you would like to avoid the scars and keep your procedure a little bit more secretive, then you should consider transumbilical breast augmentation also referred to as TUBA. This is an endoscopic procedure where the breast implants are inserted through the belly button eliminating any obvious scars and keeping your surgery private.
Those women who choose to have their breast augmentation through the belly find themselves with less recovery pain and less wound care post operative. There are other advantages to the TUBA procedure. You’ll discover your recovery time is almost half of what it is when the implant is done through the pectoral region. There is also less chance of infection because the milk ducts are not disturbed which also increases the likelihood that you can breastfeed in the future.
There is no tissue stress and the scars are reduced to a minimum, however it will take a full year for things to completely heal and you should not suntan either outside or on a tanning bed until after the year.
With breast augmentation through the belly button, you will not have the prolonged pain that is common in the armpit with the trans-auxiliary incision. You will also not lose sensation around the nipple, which is common with other forms of breast augmentation.
Not only does the belly button have plenty to offer in relation to pain and non invasiveness, it’s all a great choice if you make your living modeling or you just want to keep your new breasts a secret. No one will ever know unless you tell them. You’ll look great, feel great, and with no scars to give away your breast augmentation, the world will think your new breasts are natural.
