“…[10][11][12] However, with such an approach, the dissatisfaction rate in the medium and long term is high, raising questions about the best surgical approach to be adopted. 13,14 As an alternative to these approaches, the structured mammoplasty technique described in this work, in which breast reduction and mastopexy with silicone implants are performed, allowed for obtaining more predictable, long-lasting results with a higher degree of patient satisfaction. The objective of this technique is to convert hypertrophic and/or ptotic breasts into conical and symmetrical breasts, with convexity of the upper pole.…”

“…In general, in relation to the implant-based augmentation mastopexy, major complications include a high rate of re-intervention for asymmetry, waterfall deformity or unsatisfactory results (15-23% of cases), skin or nippleareola complex necrosis, capsular contracture, rippling, decreased nipple sensation, implant extrusion, and scar revisions [6]. Fat necrosis is a frequent complication as a concern of fat transplantation [16][17][18].…”

Background Autologous fat transplantation for breast augmentation represents an increasingly interesting technique in plastic surgery. Only a few standardized procedures are available. Hybrid augmentation mastopexy combines the benefits of autologous fat transplantation and implant-based breast augmentation mastopexy, reducing implant-related complications and prothesis size. Herein, we describe our surgical approach as a “hybrid aesthetic surgery.” Methods A retrospective analysis of all patients who underwent hybrid breast augmentation and lifting with simultaneous fat grafting was carried out. Clinical outcomes, ultrasound evaluation of upper pole fullness, aesthetic postoperative results, and complications were examined. Results Eighteen patients with a mean age of 33 years (range: 24–52 years) and mean BMI of 25.8 kg/m2 (range: 21.4–32.1 kg/m2) were included in this study. Mean injected fat volume per breast was 115 cc (range: 78–144 cc). Patients were followed up for a mean of 9.4 months (range: 6–24 months). No fat necrosis or major complications were encountered during the follow-up. Patient satisfaction was high in terms of breast shape, size, and coverage of the breast implant. No recurrence of ptosis was observed yet and no secondary revision surgery was performed. Conclusions Hybrid mastopexy augmentation is an effective and safe procedure that combines the benefits of autologous fat grafting and implant-based breast augmentation. The transfer of autologous soft tissue allows obtaining a natural breast shape, reducing the onset of rippling and prothesis size. The reduction of prothesis size prevents ptosis recurrence but provides the desired projection. This reliable option improves long-term breast shape with elevated patient’s satisfaction. Level of evidence: Level IV, therapeutic study.

“…I read with interest the recent original article published in your journal titled ''Combined Breast Reduction Augmentation,'' by Manero and Rodriguez-Vega [1]. I want to congratulate the authors both for the excellent results depicted and for the low complication rate they have achieved using their combined breast reduction acugmentation (CBRA) technique.…”
