Combined abdominoplasty and augmentation mammaplasty through a transverse suprapubic incision

Simultaneous breast augmentation and abdominoplasty through a transverse suprapubic incision offers women the opportunity to undergo body restoration with one operation, one anestheitc, one incision, and no scars on or near the breasts. Prompted by the earlier work of Planas [5] and others, we have performed this combined procedure on 8 women since February, 1977, and have compared the results with those in 4 additional patients who underwent separate abdominoplasty and breast augmentation operations.
