Reduction mammoplasty by the central pedicle, avoiding a vertical scar.

Reduction of the macromamma that causes posture malformations, neck and back pain, and psychological problems is very important. I performed the technique on 13 patients whose ages ranged between 17 and 60 years during 1990 and 1993. I observed no complications in the controls. To obtain a better result in reduction mammoplasty, I use a technique that can be performed on patients of any age, without causing any problems in vascularization, sensitivity, and lactation, and that avoids the vertical scar.
