Camouflage and the augmentation mammaplasty.

Augmentation mammaplasty has become a safe and accepted surgical procedure since the introduction of silicone prosthesis. Proper selection of the type and size of the implant and careful attention to making the line of incision as nearly invisible as possible are important for a natural-appearing breast. Placement of a silicone gel filled prosthetic implant through a periareolar incision achieves excellent contour and consistency in the augmented breast, with an essentially invisible scar.
