Introduction
Under normal circumstances, dual-plane breast augmentation involves placing the implant in two different planes between the pectoralis major muscle and the breast tissue. The general reference price for dual-plane breast augmentation ranges from 20,000 to 100,000 yuan per session, and visible improvement is usually observed within 20 to 45 days. Using precise surgical techniques, the dual-plane method positions the upper portion of the implant beneath the breast tissue.

Generally, dual-plane breast augmentation involves placing the implant in two different planes between the pectoralis major muscle and the breast tissue. The general reference price for dual-plane breast augmentation ranges from 20,000 to 100,000 yuan per session, with visible improvement typically occurring within 20 to 45 days. A detailed explanation is as follows:

Dual-plane breast augmentation precisely positions the upper portion of the implant beneath the breast tissue and the lower portion beneath the pectoralis major muscle through meticulous surgical techniques. This method reduces compression of the implant by the pectoralis major muscle, resulting in a more natural and fuller appearance in the lower portion of the breast. Additionally, dual-plane breast augmentation often employs visible endoscopic technology, enhancing the safety and precision of the procedure. It is associated with a shorter recovery period, no external sutures, more concealed incisions, reduced trauma, less discomfort, and faster recovery.

Dual-plane breast augmentation is suitable for patients who have a certain degree of existing breast tissue but desire further improvement in breast shape, especially for those with adequate skin elasticity who do not wish for the implant to be completely covered by the pectoralis major muscle. However, dual-plane breast augmentation does carry certain risks. Therefore, when considering this procedure, patients should fully understand the potential risks and postoperative care requirements and, under a physician's guidance, choose the most suitable surgical approach.

If undergoing dual-plane breast augmentation, it is recommended to visit a正规 hospital and follow the guidance of qualified medical professionals to ensure both safety and effectiveness.
