The Efficacy and Safety Assessment of Sequential Liposuction Modified Double Ring Areola Incision in Moderate and Severe Breast Ptosis Correction.

ABSTRACT:

Background

A total of 42 cases of moderate and severe breast ptosis were treated with sequential liposuction modified double ring areola incision surgery (experimental group), and 45 cases were treated with traditional double ring areola incision alone surgery (control group).

Methods

They were followed up for 6 months after the operation. The scar formation and breast ptosis repair were observed, and postoperative complications and patient satisfaction were monitored.

Results

Better results such as improved postoperative breast appearance were achieved in the sequential liposuction modified double ring areola incision group compared with the double ring areola incision alone group. After treatment, the distance between the midpoint of the inframammary fold and the nipple, the distance between the suprasternal fossa, and the nipple of the two groups were lower than those before treatment. The distance between the midpoint of the inframammary fold and the nipple showed no difference between the two experimental groups. The distance between the suprasternal fossa and the nipple of the experimental group were lower compared with the control group. Lower complication rates and higher satisfaction rates were observed in patients treated with sequential liposuction modified double ring areola incision. The patients in the experimental group were more satisfied with breast symmetry, breast shape, and breast size than those in the control group.

Conclusions

The treatment with sequential liposuction modified double ring areola incision was effective and safe compared with double ring areola incision alone. It could improve the breast shape of patients, improve the satisfaction of patients, and reduce the occurrence of complications.

Project description:BackgroundMargin Reflex Distance 1(MRD 1) only describes the central height of upper eyelid and relies on the examiner's experience and disregards eyelid contour abnormalities. Therefore MRD 1 may not be sufficient for an acceptable result to evaluate the outcomes of ptosis surgery. The primary purpose of this study was to assess outcomes of unilateral ptosis correction based on parameters including degree of symmetry, MRD 1, peak height of the upper lid, temporal and nasal ocular surface area, and temporal/nasal area ratio with an objective, quantitative, and repeatable method.MethodsThis study was designed as a retrospective non-randomized case-control study. Medical records of the patients with unilateral ptosis between October 2015 and December 2020 were reviewed. Patients with unilateral ptosis who underwent surgical correction and levator function of 5 mm or greater were included in the study. Two groups were defined; ptotic eye was case group and contralateral eye was control group. Data analysis was performed Image J and Matlab softwares.ResultsThirty-four patients were included in the study. Mean age of patients was 58.8 ± 12.7 years (range 15-75 years). Mean follow-up time was 19.5 ± 7.3 months (range 8-40 months). Four patients were diagnosed with congenital ptosis and 30 patients aponeurotic ptosis. Mean preoperative degree of symmetry for overall eyelid contour was 36.6 ± 27.5% (range 1-92%). Mean postoperative degree of symmetry for overall eyelid contour was 72.4 ± 16.5% (range 55-92%). Temporal/Nasal (T/N) area ratios for contralateral normal eye was 1.19 pre-postoperative, and it was 1.11 preoperatively, 1.15 postoperatively for operated ptotic eye.ConclusionsThis study primarily demonstrated a quantitative, objective, and repeatable method to investigate the degree of symmetry after eyelid surgeries. Secondly, this study suggested that T/N ratio may not be a reliable parameter to evaluate the eyelid symmetry.
