Abstract

Background: Ptosis and volume atrophy of the breasts are common symptoms for various ages of women and may induce a considerable amount of stress in daily life. Periareolar augmentation mastopexy is an effective procedure for such conditions, and planning the new nipple position is very important.

Aim: To provide a simple, straightforward planning and walkthrough of this operation in a journey to find the ideal level of breast lifting for natural upper fullness.

Materials and methods: From January 2019 to December 2021, a total of 193 patients with volume deflation and ptosis of the breast received periareolar augmentation mastopexy in our institute. We retrospectively reviewed data on demographics, surgical procedures, outcomes, and complications.

Results: All operations were done with periareolar incisions, and the mean follow-up period was 29.48 ± 9.11 months. The Likert scale of outcome satisfaction scored 9.02 ± 0.61. Complications were minimal, and no symmastia or bottoming out occurred.

Conclusion: We present our basic strategies of periareolar augmentation mastopexy with a slight modification of the design. We believe that lifting the nipple to 3-4 cm above the inframammary fold (IMF) (making the top of the areola about 5-6 cm above the IMF) yields satisfactory aesthetic results.

乳晕周围隆乳术：寻找隆乳的审美水平

上睑下垂和乳房体积萎缩是不同年龄妇女的常见症状，并可能在日常生活中引起相当大的压力。乳晕周围乳房隆胸术是治疗此类疾病的有效方法，规划新的乳头位置非常重要。提供一个简单，直接的计划和演练的过程中，找到理想水平的乳房提升自然上丰满。2019年1月至2021年12月，我院共有193例乳房体积缩小、上睑下垂患者行乳晕周围隆乳术。我们回顾性地回顾了人口统计学、外科手术、结局和并发症的数据。所有手术均为乳晕周围切口，平均随访29.48±9.11个月。结果满意度Likert量表得分为9.02±0.61。并发症极少，未发生胸合或触底。我们提出了我们的基本策略乳晕周围乳房隆胸与轻微修改的设计。我们认为，将乳头提起至乳下褶(IMF)上方3-4厘米处(使乳晕顶部在IMF上方约5-6厘米处)可获得满意的美学效果。
