Janet Turkle, M.D.
Dr. Janet Turkle Board Certified Plastic Surgeon

Janet Turkle, M.D. is a board certified plastic surgeon in Indianapolis, IN and Carmel, IN. We believe the doctor-patient relationship is just as important in cosmetic and reconstructive breast surgery as in any other medical situation. Does he or she focus on your needs? Do you feel you have the surgeon’s undivided attention? Is the physician’s staff professional, warm and welcoming?

The physician’s training and experience are just as important to you as how you feel about the surgeon and staff. The surgeon’s training and experience make him or her knowledgeable about the best procedure for a particular problem or patient. The best surgeons remain up-to-date on the latest techniques and procedures.

Dr. Turkle believes the most important person is you. She strives to treat you as we would want to be treated. We welcome your interest in our services and look forward to hearing from you. The breast enlargement surgery at our Indianapolis practice begins with an incision, made either in the crease underneath the breast, the armpit, or the perimeter of the areola (the dark skin surrounding the nipple). The placement of the incision will vary according to your goals and body type and the specifics of the procedure. A pocket is created either underneath the breast tissue or underneath the chest wall muscle. The breast implants are then placed in this pocket.

Once the incisions have been closed and taped, a surgical bra is applied. After breast augmentation discomfort may be greatly reduced through medication. A return to normal light activity is possible as soon as you feel ready, usually within a day or two. Swelling gradually subsides and becomes undetectable in a few months' time. Stitches are buried and will dissolve on their own.
