Journal CME Article: Expanded Approaches for Mastopexy in Aesthetic and Reconstructive Breast Surgery-43654-Video 2 of 3

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video details the surgical technique for aesthetic mastopexy and auto-augmentation using an inferior flap. Preoperative markings are made on the upright patient, focusing on symmetry and precise nipple placement. The procedure involves deepithelialization, defining pedicles, and creating a subglandular pocket. The inferior flap is advanced and secured to the chest wall, with optional absorbable mesh for added support in cases of poor tissue quality. The process ensures symmetry through careful measurements, with adjustments made for breast size discrepancies. The surgery concludes with securing the areolas and addressing excess tissue with a horizontal wedge excision if necessary.
