    This study introduces a new surgical technique for breast reduction and lift (reductive mastoplasty and mastopexy) that improves breast shape and projection. The method yielded highly satisfactory and durable results in over 200 patients.

    Area of Science:

    • Plastic Surgery
    • Reconstructive Surgery
    • Aesthetic Surgery

    Background:

    • Unfavorable breast contours are a common issue following reductive mastoplasty and mastopexy.
    • A need exists for surgical techniques that improve breast shape and projection.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To present a novel surgical technique for reductive mastoplasty and mastopexy.
    • To achieve improved breast base reduction, axillary pole contouring, and medial positioning of the lateral pole.
    • To enhance breast conification and areolomamillary complex projection.

    Main Methods:

    • The technique involves the construction of three glandular flaps.
    • Maximum preservation of the skin covering is a key component.
    • 205 operations were performed between March 1987 and December 1994.

    Main Results:

    • The surgical technique resulted in satisfactory breast contours.
    • The outcomes were observed to be more lasting compared to previous methods.
    • Improved projection of the areolomamillary complex was achieved.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed surgical technique effectively addresses unfavorable breast contours after mastoplasty and mastopexy.
    • The method provides durable and aesthetically pleasing results.
    • This approach offers a valuable option for breast reduction and lift procedures.
