Circumareolar Mastopexy with Multiple Glandular Plications for Symmetry of the Contra-Lateral Breast, in Patients Undergoing Breast Reconstruction with Prosthesis. Experience on 50 Cases

摘要

Four years experience on 50 cases using the Elliott’s technique for symmetrization of the contra-lateral breast in patients undergoing breast reconstruction with an anatomical prosthesis is presented in this paper. The Elliott’s technique with its double superior and horizontal plication is a suitable and long-lasting procedure for patients with small-moderate ptotic breast and elastic skin, who wish to have a simple procedure and an immediate result with minimal scars.
