A method and instruments for performing breast augmentation mammaplasty in a patient are provided. The method includes making an incision to gain access to an area underneath the breast of the patient, and providing a retractor including a shaft and a tubular member connected to the shaft. The tubular member includes a hollow endoscope guide portion and a generally flattened blade portion, where the endoscope guide portion transitions into the blade portion such that an end of the blade extends beyond an end of the endoscope guide. The method further includes inserting the retractor at least partially through the incision to aid in placing a breast implant within the patient.
