Beyond the T-junction: Reinforce strategic sites in superomedial pedicle mammoplasties using a dual dermal flap technique

We propose a simple modification to the standard technique using small dermal flaps at strategic points to reinforce T-inverted scars for superomedial and superior pedicles. Building on previous studies, This approach aims to enhance healing and reduce complications without increasing operative time.

Abstract

We propose a simple modification to the standard technique using small dermal flaps at strategic points to reinforce T-inverted scars for superomedial and superior pedicles. Building on previous studies, This approach aims to enhance healing and reduce complications without increasing operative time.
