Mastopexy with Autoaugmentation and Fat Transfer

Patients have been requesting implant removal in revisional breast surgery and options for breast improvement without the use of breast implants in primary breast surgery. This article focuses on perioperative decision making and surgical technique in performing a mastopexy with autoaugmentation and fat grafting. The use of a lower island of breast parenchyma relocated to the upper pole through a central pedicle in primary surgery and a superior pedicle in postexplantation cases, along with fat grafting can provide improvement in global volume or simply additional volume in areas of deficiency, such as the upper poles and medial cleavage region.
