BACKGROUND: Dual-plane breast augmentation is a popular cosmetic procedure. However, objective evaluations on the effects of dual-plane breast augmentation on breast morphology are lacking. This study evaluated the breast morphological changes and correlative factors after dual-plane anatomic implant augmentation with a periareolar incision via a Vectra 3-dimensional (3D) scanning technique. METHODS: The dynamic changes in linear distance, breast projection, nipple position, and breast volume and surface over time (preoperatively; 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months after surgery) were analyzed in 21 patients with the Vectra 3D scanning technique. In another group of 65 patients, the influence of the implant parameters and tissue characteristics of the patients on breast morphological changes were evaluated. RESULTS: The breast measurements changed significantly up to 6 months postoperatively and remained stable thereafter. The inframammary fold dropped by 0.8 cm at 1 month postoperatively and by 0.5 cm in the following 11 months. The preoperative implant volume and a lower pole skin elasticity lead to an increase in the nipple-to-inframammary fold distance. Compared with the expected values, the final volume was 10.9% smaller, and the projection was 25% smaller. Both the reduced volume and projection were correlated with the implant parameters and preoperative values. The nipple level was slightly elevated by approximately 0.8 cm. CONCLUSIONS: This study provides objective information regarding the breast morphological changes and correlative factors after dual-plane breast augmentation. These information may help to further understand the operation effects of dual-plane breast augmentation and to guide medical practice.

背景:双平面隆乳术是一种流行的美容手术。然而,缺乏对双平面隆乳术对乳房形态影响的客观评价。本研究采用 Vectra 三维(3D)扫描技术,通过乳晕切口评估双平面解剖型植入物隆乳术后乳房形态的变化及其相关因素。
方法:采用 Vectra 3D 扫描技术,对 21 例患者进行术前、术后 1 个月、3 个月、6 个月和 12 个月的线性距离、乳房突出度、乳头位置、乳房体积和表面的动态变化分析。在另一组 65 例患者中,评估了患者的植入物参数和组织特征对乳房形态变化的影响。
结果:乳房测量值在术后 6 个月内显著变化,此后保持稳定。术后 1 个月,乳房下皱襞下降 0.8cm,之后 11 个月下降 0.5cm。术前植入物体积和下极皮肤弹性增加导致乳头至乳房下皱襞距离增加。与预期值相比,最终体积减少了 10.9%,突出度减少了 25%。体积和突出度的减少均与植入物参数和术前值相关。乳头位置升高约 0.8cm。
结论:本研究提供了双平面隆乳术后乳房形态变化及其相关因素的客观信息。这些信息可能有助于进一步了解双平面隆乳术的手术效果,并指导临床实践。
