Abstract

The aim of this study is to explore the effectiveness and indications of using an anatomical implant through an inframammary fold incision for the treatment of breast ptosis. A retrospective analysis was conducted on cases of mild breast ptosis treated with this technique from November 2019 to February 2023. The preoperative and postoperative ptosis distances were recorded and subjected to statistical analysis for significant differences (P < 0.05). A total of 25 cases, comprising 50 breasts, were included in the study (n = 50). The preoperative ptosis distance was 1.29 ± 0.056 cm, and the postoperative ptosis distance was 0.072 ± 0.024 cm, showing a statistically significant difference (P < 0.05). All patients expressed satisfaction with the esthetic outcomes, and no complications such as double bubble deformity were observed. The use of anatomical implants through an inframammary fold incision for the treatment of mild breast ptosis demonstrates effective and safe clinical outcomes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
