Abstract
Three cases of striae distensae of the breast after augmentation mammoplasty are presented. The patients were all in their early 20s and nulliparous. The striae developed in the first few months after surgery. A review of the literature on striae distensae is presented. To the best of our knowledge, striae distensae occurring after augmentation mammoplasty have not previously been described.
