The ECLiPSE Procedure as an Alternative to Mastopexy following Implant Removal.

Unlabelled: With the rise in number of breast implant removals for a variety of indications, strategies to improve aesthetic outcomes, while minimizing scars and operating time, will prove to be of benefit. We present here a novel periareolar sickle skin excision as a good option for women with mild to moderate ptosis and central loss of breast volume following implant removal/capsulectomy.

Methods: The ECLiPSE (xplant, apsulectomy, ft using eriareolar ickle skin xcision) was utilized in 53 patients with a median follow-up of 24 weeks.
