Abstract: | Vertical mammaplasty is a simple and safe procedure that relies on an upper pedicle to the areola with lower central breast
reduction and glandular shaping. We applied this technique to six patients adding a modification of the vertical scar which
distributed skin tension both to the areola and vertical suture line. It prevented an unacceptable puckering vertical scar
and enlargement of areola. This modification also provided satisfactory breast shape with a good vertical scar especially
at the early postoperative period. |
