Abstract

The inframammary incision is a very common access in breast augmentation. The incision must be positioned well to place the resulting scar in the new inframammary fold. This article presents a simple marking on patients for proper localization of the inframammary incision. Ninety-six patients who underwent primary breast augmentation were divided into 3 groups according to the volume of the used implants. A total of 90.6% of the patients had excellent postoperative scar location, and 9.4% had good results, with overall 100% patient satisfaction. Our preoperative markings offer simple, easy, and fixed measurements that facilitate proper postoperative location of the inframammary incision and hide the scar significantly.
