The TUBA (Trans Umbilical Breast Augmentation) technique provides insertion of breast implants through the belly button. It is performed on an outpatient basis using general or local anesthesia. A small incision is made in the belly button. Through the incision, a slender instrument passes under the skin to a location behind the breast tissue. Next, a tissue expander is inserted and placed under the breast. With the expander, a space is developed to create a pocket for the implant size requested. ... an empty saline implant is placed in the pocket and filled with sterile saline. The incision is closed with a few absorbable stitches. 1, record 1, English, - transumbilical%20breast%20augmentation

El nuevo procedimiento de aumento de senos a través del ombligo facilita colocar los implantes de agua salina para realzar el tamaño y la forma del seno. Una pequeña incisión se hace dentro del ombligo y usando una pequeña cámara, los implantes son insertados a través de un estrecho túnel debajo de la piel y detrás del tejido mamario. El resultado de éste tipo de aumento de senos es igual a los otros métodos, pero sin cicatriz visible. 4, record 1, Spanish, - aumento%20mamario%20por%20v%C3%ADa%20transumbilical
