Circumvertical augmentation mastopexy using a double-layered fascial flap

Objective. To describe the original technique of augmentation mastopexy using a double-layered fascial flap (DLFF). Material and methods. We retrospectively analyzed 85 patients (mean age 35 years) who underwent surgery between January 2020 and December 2022. The minimum follow-up period was 6 months. Incidence of redo surgeries, complication rate and satisfaction with postoperative outcomes were assessed. Results. The majority of patients (n=70; 82%) were satisfied with postoperative outcomes. The overall incidence of redo surgeries was 7.2% (n=6). All patients had no complications related to implant dislocation. Conclusion. Original DLFF for augmentation mastopexy is valuable to stabilize the implant and prevent dislocation-related complications (double-bubble and bottoming out). This technique showed high efficiency and stability of postoperative outcomes.

We retrospectively analyzed 85 patients (mean age 35 years) who underwent surgery between January 2020 and December 2022. The minimum follow-up period was 6 months. Incidence of redo surgeries, complication rate and satisfaction with postoperative outcomes were assessed. Results. The majority of patients (n=70; 82%) were satisfied with postoperative outcomes. The overall incidence of redo surgeries was 7.2% (n=6). All patients had no complications related to implant dislocation. Conclusion. Original DLFF for augmentation mastopexy is valuable to stabilize the implant and prevent dislocation-related complications (double-bubble and bottoming out). This technique showed high efficiency and stability of postoperative outcomes.
