Transaxillary subpectoral augmentation mammaplasty: a 9-year experience.

The TASP approach to mammary augmentation offers distinct, clinically confirmed advantages of locating the scar off the breast, minimizing loss of nipple sensation, and reducing risks of hematoma and infection. The technique is limited as an approach for secondary surgery of the breast and contraindicated in the ptotic breast. Facility, consistency, and reliability with the technique depend on thorough understanding of the anatomy, patience while learning the technique, and vigilant attention to detail.
