The M-Y Axilloplasty After Massive Weight Loss: Analysis of 159 Consecutive Patients.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND:Brachioplasties often culminate in unsightly scars that are a source of disappointment to patients. We aimed to evaluate the results of M-Y axilloplasty following massive weight loss. PATIENTS:We performed a retrospective assessment of our technique for brachioplasty with an M-Y axilloplasty in 159 female patients after massive weight loss. This retrospective study covered a study period of 10 years. METHOD:After substantial lipoaspiration, the incision is placed on the internal side of the arm, with an M-shaped axilloplasty. RESULTS:The satisfaction rate was 154/159 (97%) and 120/159 (75.5%) being happy with their esthetic results. Nineteen percent (30/159) of the patients had complications and 12/159 (7.5%) underwent a surgical revision. CONCLUSION:M-Y axilloplasty for brachioplasty is an effective procedure for treating women who are unhappy with their upper arms after massive weight loss. The satisfaction rate is high, and the result leaves no excess skin on the chest. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE IV:This journal requires that authors assign a level of evidence to each article.

  • A stacked technique of mastopexy: volume redistribution mastopexy with inferior flap and superomedially based pedicle.

    abstract:BACKGROUND:Many mastopexy techniques focus on lifting the position of the nipple and excising the skin, with less attention paid to redistributing the uplifted volume of the ptotic breast. With the inferior pedicle technique, the onus is placed on skin taking the tension for the whole breast. Skin stretch then may lead...
