[BACKGROUND] Reduction mammoplasty (RM) remains one of the most common plastic surgeries worldwide. Many different techniques have been described in the literature, each with its advantages and limitations. Nipple-areolar complex necrosis r…

[BACKGROUND] Inferior-central pedicle has some aesthetic drawbacks, including hypertrophic scar along the inframammary fold (IMF), squaring of the breast contours, and propensity to develop long-term 'bottoming-out.' This study aimed to ver…

[BACKGROUND] In some breast cancer patients with a contralateral unaffected hypertrophic and ptotic breast, autologous small-breast reconstruction with contralateral breast reduction is a good option. The current study is aimed to assess th…

[OBJECTIVE] Various skin incision methods have been reported for reduction mammoplasty and mastopexy. This report describes a new incision method that may improve on conventional methods, particularly with respect to prevention of hypertrop…

Gigantomastia has been described as excessive hypertrophy of the female breast, however, there is controversy about the weight of the excised tissue. In the literature, resected tissue amount between 1,000 g and 2,000 g per breast is report…

[BACKGROUND] The central mound technique offers a relatively less common approach for breast reduction. This study evaluated the expected safety and efficacy outcomes using this technique in a large patient series. [METHODS] A retrospectiv…

Objective evidence for the role of inhibition of collagen cross-linking in human scar using a nontoxic topical inhibitor, 1,4-diaminobutane (1,4 DAB), in patients with scars at risk for hypertrophic scar formation is presented. The authors …

[BACKGROUND] Breast augmentation is an elective surgery used to increase the size of the breast in females. This study was undertaken to determine the breast augmentation in Pakistani females. [METHODS] From 2006 to 2011, 43 female patient…

[BACKGROUND] Although obtaining symmetrical breasts with good projection and a correctly positioned nipple-areola complex are the main objectives after breast reduction (BR) or mastopexy (MP), the importance of areola esthetics should not b…

Endoscopic placement of breast implants has been described through an umbilical incision. Limitations include the fact that only inflatable implant can be used through umbilical approach. The purpose of this study is to describe the authors…

[BACKGROUND] Giant fibroadenoma (GFA) has been defined as fibroadenoma greater than 5 cm in it's the widest diameter and/or weighing more than 500 g. A benign lesion, its size also raises the possibility of malignancy requiring differentiat…

[PURPOSE] Capsular contracture is the most troublesome complication after aesthetic breast surgery. Capsule formation can be seen as a normal foreign body reaction caused by implant insertion into the body. Pathological capsular contracture…

Formation of hypertrophic scars is a common complication of wound healing, and at present little is known about the incidence and risk factors. Our aim was to analyse the incidence, progression, and regression of postoperative hypertrophic …

[BACKGROUND] Simultaneous augmentation mastopexy for moderately to severely ptotic breasts presents the challenge of determining how much excess skin should be removed after implant placement to create symmetry and provide for maximal skin …

[BACKGROUND/AIM] There is a natural asymmetry in normal female brests. When the difference in the shape, size or position of the breast and nipple-areola complex is visible, surgical correction is the only treatment option and presents one …

[OBJECTIVES] To evaluate the efficacy of topical application of calcipotriol to healing wounds in preventing or reducing hypertrophic scar formation and to investigate the biochemical properties of the epidermis associated with hypertrophic…

[BACKGROUND] During the last decades transaxillary breast augmentation (TBA) has gained worldwide acceptance. Breast augmentation via transaxillary access endoscopically assisted in the subglandular, subfascial, and submuscular planes has b…

[OBJECTIVE] To investigate the feasibility of transaxillary dual-plane breast augmentation with endoscope assistant. [METHODS] The submuscular pockets were separated through a 4 cm transverse incision in the axilla. The pectoralis major mu…

[BACKGROUND] Although transaxillary breast augmentation (TBA) is a well-studied procedure, few previous reports exist concerning the subfascial technique, especially without endoscopic assistance. This study aimed to analyze the feasibility…

Problems with periareola or circumareolar mastopexy procedures include areola spreading, hypertrophic scar, and recurrence of the ptosis largely because of tension on the closure. To minimize this tension associated with a conventional cres…
