At Studio Plastic Surgery in Toronto, breast augmentation is approached with structural precision, not guesswork. Dr. Kunaal Jindal, a board-certified plastic surgeon certified by the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada and a member of both the Canadian Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery and the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, integrates advanced surgical planning with meticulous execution. The Internal Bra technique is one example of this philosophy in action. In breast augmentation, it refers to a specialized suture-based method that reinforces the inframammary fold and implant pocket from within, providing additional internal support so the implant maintains its intended position over time. Rather than relying solely on skin and native tissue to hold the implant, this technique strengthens structural support at the foundation. Here is what you need to know about how it works and when it may enhance your results.
What Is The Internal Bra Technique
The Internal Bra is a refined suturing approach performed during breast augmentation to reinforce the lower breast pole and stabilize the implant pocket. Carefully placed internal sutures secure and shape the inframammary fold, which plays a critical role in defining breast contour and long-term implant position.
By reinforcing this natural boundary, the technique helps control implant settling during healing. The goal is not to overcorrect or create tension, but to provide calibrated support that respects anatomy while improving predictability.
Why Structural Support Matters In Breast Augmentation
Breast implants introduce additional weight to the breast envelope. Over time, gravity, tissue characteristics, implant size, and skin elasticity all influence how that weight is distributed. Without adequate support, some patients may experience implant malposition, bottoming out, or stretching of the lower pole.
When indicated, internal reinforcement can offer measurable advantages:
- Improved implant stability: Reinforces the fold to help maintain proper implant position during healing and beyond.
- Enhanced contour control: Supports a balanced lower pole without excessive fullness or premature descent.
- Reduced revision risk: Thoughtful pocket control may decrease the likelihood of position-related complications.
- Long-term shape preservation: Strengthens structural integrity in patients with thinner tissues or larger implant choices.
This technique is not routine for every patient. It is selectively used when anatomical assessment suggests added support will meaningfully improve durability or aesthetics.
A Comprehensive Surgical Strategy
At Studio Plastic Surgery, the Internal Bra is part of a broader commitment to surgical refinement. Every step of augmentation is designed to optimize safety, precision, and long-term results.
Supporting techniques may include:
- Prospective hemostasis: A controlled, bloodless approach that enhances visualization and reduces post-operative bruising.
- Keller funnel insertion: A no-touch method that minimizes implant handling and supports sterility.
- Dual-plane placement: Strategic positioning partially beneath the muscle to improve upper pole coverage and reduce rippling in appropriate candidates.
Incision placement is equally deliberate. Dr. Jindal favors the inframammary fold approach for its accuracy, visibility, and lower complication profile, while keeping the scar discreetly concealed beneath the breast.
Determining If The Internal Bra Is Right For You
Not all breast augmentations require internal reinforcement. Ideal candidates may include patients with thinner soft tissue coverage, mild laxity, revision cases, or those selecting implants that place greater stress on the lower pole.
During your consultation in Toronto, Dr. Jindal conducts detailed measurements, evaluates tissue quality, and discusses implant size, type, and placement in depth. You will review sizing options and participate actively in defining your aesthetic goals. If additional internal support would improve structural stability or aesthetic precision, it will be thoughtfully incorporated into your surgical plan.
