Breast Augmentation with Lift in Westchester County, NY: The Dual-Plane Technique Explained

Breast Augmentation with Lift in Westchester County, NY: The Dual-Plane Technique Explained

The dual plane breast augmentation technique is a surgical method where the implant is placed partially under the chest muscle (pectoralis major) and partly under the breast tissue. This approach provides a natural breast slope, improved implant support, and longer-lasting results compared to other placement methods.

At Specialized Plastic Surgery in Harrison, NY, Dr. Chris Devulapalli frequently performs breast augmentation with lift (mastopexy) for women who want to restore youthful breast shape and volume. One of the most effective and natural-looking approaches he uses is the dual plane technique, which offers long-lasting results and beautiful contours.

Dr. Devulapalli treated a 31-year-old patient who desired enhanced breast volume and correction of sagging. Using the dual plane technique, he achieved a natural, youthful slope and improved breast shape tailored to her body.

What Is the Dual Plane Technique?

The dual plane breast augmentation technique is a specialized approach where the implant is placed partially under the chest muscle (pectoralis major) and partially under the breast tissue.

This hybrid placement combines the advantages of both submuscular and subglandular techniques, allowing for enhanced support, improved coverage, and a more natural appearance.

In these cases, placing an implant alone won’t correct sagging – which is why a breast lift combined with augmentation can provide a more complete result.

Why Patients Love the Dual Plane Technique

When performed by a board-certified plastic surgeon like Dr. Devulapalli, the dual plane technique offers several key benefits:

  • Natural Slope & Contour – Achieves a soft, feminine transition from chest to breast
  • Improved Implant Support – The chest muscle helps hold the implant in place, reducing the risk of bottoming out over time
  • Longer-Lasting Results – Better stability means results remain more consistent over the years
  • Better Coverage – Especially for women with thinner breast tissue, this approach minimizes implant rippling or visibility
