Vertical techniques have become a growing area in reduction mammaplasty. Although it has many advantages such as a smaller scar and durable results, some problems still persist. The Hall-Findlay superomedial pedicle technique is one approach to obtain better results but is not without drawbacks. Some modifications are suggested to overcome its problems. Superior pedicle vertical mammaplasty was performed for mastopexy, and superior, superomedial, and modified superomedial techniques were used for the reduction cases. Patients were followed up for at least 2years and the complications were determined. Mastopexy cases had almost no complications. In reduction cases, the most common problems involved circulation and scar widening with the superior pedicle technique and bottoming-out deformity with the superomedial Hall-Findlay technique. These were negligible in its modified form. The tightness in the infra-areolar site is very important for a durable breast shape. Although the Hall-Findlay superomedial pedicle technique offers a versatile composite block nipple-areola complex with its sensation maintained, the inferior part of the pedicle that makes the medial pillar is in excess and the same amount of tissue must be removed from the lateral pillar to ensure tightness.
