However, several methodological limitations merit consideration. Although inter-observer agreement was reported, intra-observer reliability was not assessed, limiting evaluation of the consistency and reproducibility of subjective ratings. Furthermore, the study used breast volume difference as the objective reference standard despite breast symmetry being a multidimensional concept encompassing breast shape, contour, projection, nipple-areolar complex position, and inframammary fold alignment. Reliance on volumetric measurements alone may therefore underestimate overall aesthetic symmetry and partly explain the poor concordance with subjective assessments. In addition, while the introduction emphasizes the importance of symmetry for patient body image, the study population comprised individuals attending breast consultations rather than a truly healthy cohort, potentially limiting generalizability. More importantly, subjective evaluation relied exclusively on plastic surgeons and laypersons without incorporating patient-reported outcome measures. As patient satisfaction is the principal goal of aesthetic breast surgery, inclusion of validated instruments such as the BREAST-Q would have strengthened the clinical relevance of the findings. Finally, the absence of an a priori sample size or power calculation, the unexplained reduction from 209 eligible participants to 100 analysed cases, and agreement estimates based on only five plastic surgeons and five laypersons with wide confidence intervals raise concerns regarding the precision and reliability of the reported agreement. Future studies should integrate multidimensional symmetry metrics, patient-reported outcomes, intra-observer reliability, and adequately powered agreement analyses to enhance the validity and clinical applicability of breast symmetry assessment.No Level Assigned This journal requires that authors assign a level of evidence to each submission to which Evidence-Based Medicine rankings are applicable.

The findings are intended to provide experimental evidence for subsequent clinical handling and procedural planning.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;PCL microspheres-based fillers were diluted with non-cross-linked HA solution, sterile water, or saline at varying ratios. Sedimentation behavior was assessed both macroscopically and microscopically over a 20-minute period. Extrusion force was measured using 30 G and 32 G needles. Key rheological parameters, including storage modulus (G'), loss modulus (G''), and complex viscosity (η*), were systematically characterized.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;Dilution with non-cross-linked HA significantly enhanced formulation stability. Representative HA-diluted formulation (PCL2HW2) maintained homogeneity for more than 20 minutes, while saline-diluted and water-diluted counterparts exhibited rapid phase separation. HA-diluted samples required higher extrusion forces (2.2-3.3 N) than saline-diluted and water-diluted formulations (1.1-2.0 N), though all remained readily injectable through fine needles under clinically relevant conditions. Rheological analysis showed that HA-diluted formulations exhibited a concentration-dependent decrease in moduli with increasing diluent volume, while maintaining a superior viscoelastic profile than saline and water controls, which displayed predominantly low-viscosity and liquid-like behavior.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;Non-cross-linked HA solution serves as a superior diluent to saline and water, effectively stabilizing PCL microspheres and providing favorable rheological properties for superficial delivery. These findings confirm the technical feasibility of HA-diluted PCL fillers for hydro-shaping and mesotherapy indications and provide a scientific basis for optimizing clinical protocols in superficial aesthetic treatments due to inherently higher viscosity of HA, whereas saline and water can also be used as alternative dilution media. However, based on the stability kinetics, HA-diluted preparations should be used within 20 minutes, whereas saline- or water-diluted should be administered within 5 minutes to ensure optimal performance.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;No level assigned: &lt;/strong&gt;This journal requires that authors assign a level of evidence to each article.
