Breast reduction and mastopexy are among the most frequent procedures in aesthetic breast surgery. Many approaches have been described, and various types of dermaglandular pedicles for the nipple-areola complex have been used. The authors present a technique suitable for either mastopexy or breast reduction whereby the superior or superomedial pedicle supplying the nipple-areola complex is combined with an inferior dermaglandular flap to restore the upper pole fullness, thereby improving breast shape and projection.
