Abstract

The minus-plus mastopexy technique is designed for correction of moderate or major breast ptosis where breast volume is adequate but located in the lower quadrants and increased fullness in the upper quadrants is desired. The advantages of this procedure are absence of a medial scar, excellent projection, ensured nipple viability, speed, and flexibility.
