Breast Ptosis Managed by Mastopexy Using the Triple Flaps Procedure

Abstract  Breast ptosis is a highly unattractive appearance of the breast. In the mind, it is associated with aging, multiple pregnancies,
lactation, and senile changes. Its correction by mastopexy presents one of the greatest challenges to the breast surgeon aiming
at a pleasant full conical shape and stability of the results. The authors present their mastopexy procedure using a triple-flap
method based on the principle of a superior pedicle flap mammaplasty. The technique, presented in detail, basically consists
of a superior pedicle dermaglandular flap that carries the nipple–areola complex between outer and inner flaps. The outer
flap is rotated inward and upward behind the main superior pedicle to give fullness to the breast and fixed to the chest wall.

Large Unilateral Breast Autoinflation After Breastfeeding Linked to Polyacrylamide Hydrogel Injection Augmentation Mammaplasty

Abstract  Augmentation mammaplasty using polyacrylamide hydrogel (PAAG) injection is associated with myriad complications. A patient
treated by the authors had bilateral breast augmentation with PAAG injection and experienced large unilateral right breast
autoinflation after breastfeeding, which required surgical clearance of a likely galactocele or sterile pus collection that
resulted in deformity. Patients with PAAG filler injection-augmented breasts should avoid breastfeeding. The authors recommend
against using PAAG injection for augmentation mammaplasty, especially in women intending to breastfeed. Physicians and patients
must be aware of the complications associated with PAAG before gel administration.

Preventing the “Bottoming Out” and “Star-gazing” Phenomena in Inferior Pedicle Breast Reduction with an Acellular Dermal Matrix Internal Brassiere

Conclusion  The use of an acellular dermal matrix internal brassiere is a safe and effective technique for preventing the “bottoming out”
and “star-gazing” phenomena that occurs after inferior pedicle breast reduction. Longer-term follow-up will be required to
assess the longevity of these results.
