摘要
We present our experience with using a periareolar mastopexy technique combined with prosthesis implantation to correct mammary ptosis, misplaced areolas, and tuberous hypoplastic breasts. We draw a circle around the areola and deepidermize the skin between them. We enter the glandular tissue and introduce the implant in a submuscular pocket. A purse string suture of nonabsorbable material is used to gather the excess skin. Results were satisfactory in all cases. During the immediate postoperative weeks the shape was flatter and protruded less, but a progressive correction was observed. The tuberous breast could be released and reshaped adequately. Misplaced areolas can also be replaced correctly by drawing the periareolar circle and ellipse in eccentric forms. This technique does not allow great elevation of the areola (no more than 4-5 cm), but it is good and safe for correcting minor to moderate ptosis combined with volume augmentation.
