We propose Dual Plane tecnique in augmentative mammoplasty as an alternative for individual adjustment when using the subfascial plane. Thirty cases are presented in which a variation of the dual plane technique is used. Its indications, advantages and surgical highpoints are discussed. This method consists on a pocket where the implant is covered by the pectoral muscle only on its upper pole, and by the fascia on the rest of it. The percentages of this components are adjusted to the anatomical characteristics of each case. Indications of this technique are primary mammoplasties, and more precisely secondary ones with ptosis, contractile capsule or ripling.
