When it comes to breast augmentation, achieving natural-looking results with minimal scarring is a top priority. At Atlanta Plastic Surgery Specialists, P.C., Dr. Jones offers a groundbreaking approach known as the Invisible Scar Technique (IST). When paired with saline implants, this innovative method provides exceptional aesthetic results, enhanced durability, and peace of mind for patients.

Virtually Invisible Scars

The hallmark of Dr. Jones’ IST method is its ability to create scars that are almost undetectable. In 85% of cases, scars are invisible within 6–12 months. For the remaining 15%, the faint scars are so discreet that even Dr. Jones himself has difficulty locating them. Dr. Jones uses these advanced techniques for minimal scarring:

• Stanford Stitching: A precise closure method that minimizes scar width, developed during Dr. Jones’ residency at Stanford University.
• Paris Trick: A unique stitch removal technique learned in Paris, designed to ensure painless removal and optimal healing of the wound.

This meticulous attention to detail ensures scars blend seamlessly with the surrounding skin, leaving patients with natural-looking results.

Enhanced Implant Placement

One of the standout benefits of IST with saline implants is the strategic placement of the implant to create a smooth, natural feel. Dr. Jones positions the implant fully beneath the muscle and fascia, offering superior support and minimizing the risk of visible rippling or wrinkling. Unlike traditional methods that leave 30% of the implant uncovered, IST provides 100% muscle coverage, delivering a consistently natural appearance.

IST avoids cutting the breast muscle, preserving its full strength. This undamaged muscle acts as an internal bra, providing long-term support and preventing premature sagging or “bottoming out” of the implant.

Long-Lasting, Natural Results

Patients choosing IST often experience results that stand the test of time. Patients enjoy the benefits of lasting results with rarely any need for future adjustments.

• Sag Resistance: Full muscle coverage holds the implants in place, reducing the risk of drooping. Dr. Jones has observed patients maintaining youthful breast contours for over 16 years, even after multiple pregnancies and breastfeeding.
• Low Maintenance: IST requires no specialized care, rarely needs further surgery, and patients can undergo routine mammograms without difficulty.

Minimal Complications

The IST method significantly reduces the risks associated with breast augmentation:

• Reduced Capsular Contracture: By minimizing bleeding during surgery, IST lowers the chances of hematoma and internal scarring, both major contributors to capsular contracture.
• Minimal Internal Scarring: Avoiding muscle cuts prevents the formation of hard, inflexible scar tissue, ensuring a smoother feel.
• Safer Implants: Dr. Jones uses saline implants, which eliminate the risk of silicone leakage.

IST patients benefit from long-lasting, natural results with minimal risk of complications. Re-dos or touch-ups are extremely rare, a testament to the procedure’s effectiveness and Dr. Jones’ precision.
