Incision Choices for Breast Augmentation One of the key decisions in breast augmentation is the location of the incision. The incision choice affects scarring, visibility, and surgical access. Common Incision Options There are three primary incision sites for breast implants: Inframammary Fold (IMF) Incision The most common incision in the United States (about 98%). Made in the natural crease beneath the breast. Provides excellent access for implant placement but leaves a scar on the breast. Periareolar Incision Made along the lower border of the areola.

  • I have nothing but good things to say about Dr. Rappaport. Not only is he kind, professional, and patient, he is great at what he does! I really appreciate how important finding a natural look as opposed to a fake one is to him concerning my nose. His staff are also friendly and considerate. I felt extremely safe, knowledgeable, and ready for my rhinoplasty. Even during my recovery everyone was great at checking in with me often. I highly recommend Dr. Rappaport!

    Dr. Rapaport is amazing! He gave me incredible results. Him and everyone in his office made the process of getting work done very easy. He took the time to answer any questions I had and listened to my input. There are a lot of people in the plastic surgery/cosmetic dermatology world that will just give the patient whatever they ask for and let the $$$ add up. Dr. Rapaport will be honest and say so if he doesn’t think something will look good. The aestheticians are also top notch. I highly recommend this office.
