Direct access provides precise visibility and control of the pocket.<\/p>\n<p>We plan the scar so the new breast will cover it as it settles. If the starting breast is very small and has no fold, the scar may be visible from below or when the breast is lifted during the first few months. As it matures, it usually becomes paler and much less noticeable.<\/p>\n<p>In our experience, its final visibility is usually minimal and satisfaction is very high.

In our practice, the crease is the usual approach for classic augmentation and Preserv\u00e9; mia uses the armpit. We mainly reserve the areolar approach for tuberous breasts or when we need to treat the areola itself.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>How long is a breast augmentation scar?<\/summary>\n<p>As a guide to our practice: around 3 cm for classic minimal-scar augmentation, 2.4\u20132.5 cm with Preserv\u00e9, and approximately 2.3 cm with mia. A very large implant or particular anatomy may require a longer incision.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>Will a crease scar show in a bikini?<\/summary>\n<p>It is normally covered by the breast itself and the bikini. If the starting breast is completely flat with no fold, it may be somewhat visible from below during the first few months. We plan its position so the new crease conceals it as the breast settles.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>Does mia really leave no scar on the breast?<\/summary>\n<p>Correct: mia&#8217;s scar is in the armpit, not on the breast. However, there is still an incision of approximately 2.3 cm, and it needs care just like any other surgical wound.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>When does the scar stop being red?<\/summary>\n<p>There is no identical timeline for everyone. It may be pink or red for several months and continue fading until 12\u201318 months. If the color intensifies or the scar becomes raised, very itchy, or painful, arrange a review.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>Does the scar disappear completely?<\/summary>\n<p>No. A well-healed mature scar may become a fine, flat, pale line that is hard to locate, but scar tissue does not become intact skin again, and complete disappearance cannot be promised.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>How long should scar dressings be used?<\/summary>\n<p>In our protocol, once the wound is fully closed, we continue silicone dressings for at least three months and ideally six months. The product and schedule may change if the skin becomes irritated or healing takes a different course.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>What does intraoperative UrgoTouch laser do?<\/summary>\n<p>It is a scar-healing laser we apply in the operating room immediately after closure, in a single session, to encourage more favorable scar healing. There is evidence in breast surgery, particularly reduction, but it does not erase the scar or guarantee how each patient will heal.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>What if I am prone to keloids?<\/summary>\n<p>Discuss this before surgery and show us previous scars. A personal history changes monitoring and preventive planning. If the scar starts growing beyond its edges, becoming hard, or itching severely, it needs an early assessment.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>Can a poorly healed scar be corrected?<\/summary>\n<p>It can often be improved, but treatment depends on whether it is red, raised, wide, depressed, or pigmented, and how long it has been present. Options may include silicone, laser, injections, or surgical revision in selected cases. Revision leaves a new incision and may require additional scars if a broader breast correction is needed. There is no single solution for everyone.<\/p>\n<\/details><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section class=\"aso-breast-scar__sources\" aria-labelledby=\"fuentes-cicatriz-mama\">\n    <span class=\"aso-breast-scar__label\">Medical sources<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"fuentes-cicatriz-mama\">Guidelines and studies used<\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li id=\"cicatriz-mama-fuente-1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.aemps.gob.es\/productos-sanitarios\/protesis-mamarias\/informacion-para-pacientes-sobre-protesis-mamarias\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">AEMPS: patient information about breast implants<\/a>, updated July 20, 2026.<\/li>\n<li id=\"cicatriz-mama-fuente-2\"><a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/28916908\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Li et al.: capsular contracture with periareolar versus inframammary or transaxillary incisions<\/a>, a meta-analysis.<\/li>\n<li id=\"cicatriz-mama-fuente-3\"><a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/41052824\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Three-year prospective study of mia Femtech in 100 patients<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li id=\"cicatriz-mama-fuente-4\"><a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/41628597\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Systematic review and meta-analysis of transaxillary breast augmentation in 11,686 breasts<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li id=\"cicatriz-mama-fuente-5\"><a href=\"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/s00266-017-0820-4\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Casanova et al.: randomized trial of intraoperative 1210 nm laser treatment of breast scars<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li id=\"cicatriz-mama-fuente-6\"><a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/32119763\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Wang et al.: systematic review and meta-analysis of silicone gel for scar management<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li id=\"cicatriz-mama-fuente-7\"><a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/25141160\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Updated practical recommendations for scar management and silicone use<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li id=\"cicatriz-mama-fuente-8\"><a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/37620564\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Wang et al.: safety and efficacy of laser or intense pulsed light for early surgical scars<\/a>, a systematic review and meta-analysis.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/section>\n<section class=\"aso-breast-scar__closing\">\n    <span class=\"aso-breast-scar__label\">The key point to remember<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>The best scar goes with a properly indicated technique<\/h2>\n<p>Classic augmentation may leave a line of about 3 cm, almost hidden in the crease.
