Figure 12. Markings (A) and post-operative results (B) for dermal suspension and parenchymal reshaping mastopexy with extension onto the back for incorporation into an upper body lift in a single operation. Note the lateral axillary tissues, which must be preserved for breast auto-augmentation Patient subsequently underwent a brachioplasty - note how it was merged with the prior operation by curving the incision from the pre-existing scar up into the axilla (C). Keep in mind that this also may result in a confluence of scars (T-point) that is prone to breakdown. Postoperative views (D) also demonstrate improved abdominal contour.
