This study introduces a single-stage nipple-areola reconstruction technique. It focuses on achieving optimal nipple volume and projection using local flaps, with promising initial outcomes.

Area of Science:

  • Plastic Surgery
  • Reconstructive Surgery
  • Aesthetic Surgery

Background:

  • Nipple-areola reconstruction is a critical component of breast reconstruction.
  • Achieving natural-looking nipple volume and projection remains a challenge.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present a novel one-stage surgical technique for nipple-areola reconstruction.
  • To evaluate the efficacy of using local dermis-fat flaps for nipple volume and projection.

Main Methods:

  • A one-stage surgical procedure was developed and performed.
  • Local dermis-fat flaps were utilized to reconstruct the nipple-areola complex.
  • Emphasis was placed on achieving adequate nipple volume and projection.

Main Results:
