The Versatility of the Lateral-based Mammary Flap as an "Auto-implant" for Enhancing Breast Mound for Patients Undergoing Primary Mastopexy.

Background: The demand for augmentation-mastopexy surgery without using implants has significantly increased over the years. Fat transfer offers an alternative method, but some patients do not favor this procedure either. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the versatility of using a lateral-based mammary flap as an "auto-implant" for enhancing the breast mound for patients undergoing primary mastopexy.
