The authors describe a mastopexy technique that is effective in treating small and mildly ptotic breasts to extremely large breasts and maintains breast shape over time. Tissue that in more traditional procedures has frequently “bottomed out” is moved into the upper pole and supported with a sling of pectoralis muscle.
