Protocol summary

Study aim
The effects of reduction mammoplasty and mastopexy on infra-mammary fold
Design
Clinical trial with control group, with parallel groups, without blinding and without randomization on 50 patients
Settings and conduct
In this study, 50 female patients in Shahid Modarres Hospital in Tehran, after reduction mammoplasty and mastopexy, measured the changes in the inframammary fold in standing and bent forward positions and compared with before surgery.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Including : Patients who are candidates for surgery due to sagging and loose breasts Patients who are candidates for surgery due to breast deformity to breasts shaping Patients who are candidates for surgery due to the size of the breast to reduce the size and volume of the breast Excluding: Breast asymmetry Existence of anomalies and deformities in the breasts Existence of anomalies and deformities in the breast wall Age<18 years old Breast Cancer Chemical therapy Addiction
Intervention groups
Intervention group: Patients undergoing mammoplasty. In this method, surgery is performed by anchoring incisions on the patient's breast using the superomedial pedicle technique, then it is repaired with Vicryl and PDS suture. In this group, the location of the inframammary fold (IMF) before and after surgery is assessed and the amount of displacement is measured. Control group: Patients undergoing mastopexy surgery. In this method, surgery is performed by anchoring incisions on the patient's breast using the superior and superomedial techniques, then it is repaired with Vicryl and PDS suture. In this group, the location of the inframammary fold (IMF) is also evaluated before and after surgery and the amount of displacement is measured.
Main outcome variables
The amount of inframammary fold (IMF) displacement postoperatively compared to preoperatively in standing and bent forward positions
