[BACKGROUND] Varied deformities of the upper arm are common after massive weight loss. Brachioplasty techniques have been successively modified to improve aesthetic outcomes and avoid complications, especially lymphedema and sensory damage.…

[BACKGROUND] Double-bubble and bottoming-out deformities represent the second most common reason for revision surgery in breast augmentation. Etiopathogenesis of these complications is still unclear. The aim of this paper is to report our f…

[BACKGROUND] Achievement of a well-balanced positioned navel along the longitudinal axis with a pleasing shape and hidden scarring will have a tremendous impact on the overall cosmetic outcome of an abdominoplasty. In this era of navel disp…

[UNLABELLED] Body contouring by means of minimally invasive procedures is a growing trend. Current approaches to body contouring often involve a combination of surgical techniques (eg, laser-assisted liposuction) and a series of noninvasive…

[UNLABELLED] Oncoplastic surgery of the breast has generated great excitement over the past years and has become an integrated component of the surgical treatment of breast cancer. Oncoplastic procedures (OPP) associate the best surgical on…

[BACKGROUND] In deep inferior epigastric artery perforator (DIEP) flap breast reconstruction, abdominal donor-site cosmetic and sensibility outcomes and the closure technique have drawn little attention in the literature, with many surgeons…

[INTRODUCTION] The navel contributes to abdominal surface identity and beauty. In Western societies, the display of the navel in women's fashion has grown and, nowadays, women are much more concerned about its shape and position. Despite th…

[OBJECTIVE] In breast augmentation surgery, breast symmetry depends on the breast tissue, implants and chest wall. Any asymmetry of the anterior thoracic wall can influence the breast shape. If breast asymmetry is detected in the preoperati…

[BACKGROUND] Although over the past decade the DIEP flap has emerged as one of the preferred choices for autologous breast reconstruction and the donor-site closure has much in common with the standard abdominoplasty technique, reports on c…

[BACKGROUND] In postmastectomy radiated patients, autologous tissue reconstruction is preferred over implant reconstruction, because the latter is associated with a higher rate of postoperative complications. Autologous tissue reconstructio…

In the attempt to optimise the balance between the risk of local recurrence and the cosmetic outcomes in breast surgery, new surgical procedures, so-called oncoplastic techniques, have been introduced in recent years. The term oncoplastic s…

Mastopexy and reduction mammaplasty techniques have evolved with time, pursuing the aim of an effective and reliable technique that produces a well-shaped breast and reduces the amount of scarring. The authors believe that the L mammaplasty…

The liposuction technique has changed greatly over the years. In 1989, the authors presented subdermal superficial liposuction which treats the superficial fat layer and yields better skin retraction. With this technique the surgeon can tre…

Polyurethane-covered mammary implants are the implants of choice in aesthetic and reconstructive mammary surgery. These implants give very good results in regard to breast contour and consistency, and have a very low complication rate. We p…

Minor ptosis and pseudoptosis of the breast may be corrected by a "donut" mastopexy. This technique offers the opportunity to reach a good aesthetic result with minimal scarring. A prosthesis is inserted at the time of the mastopexy and the…

A simple method of preoperative marking for reduction mammaplasty is described. This method may be used in macromastias when the technique chosen implies a postoperative scar with the shape of an inverted T. The marking sequence follows sta…
