Abstract
Sagging of the remaining breast behind the inframammary fold after breast reduction or breast augmentation may necessitate revisional surgery. The authors achieved inframammary fold reconstruction by reconstruction of the inframammary crease ligament through a deepithelialized skin flap that is anchored to the periosteum of the fifth or sixth rib. They present their simple and safe technique.
