BACKGROUND: Autologous mastopexy is an alternative for patients with small breasts, ptosis and upper pole hollowness, who desire improvement in their breast shape without using an implant. A variety of techniques have been tried throughout the years. Recently the use of autologous fat grafting (AFG) for breast augmentation increased in popularity and showed satisfying cosmetic outcome in enhancement of size, shape and texture of the breast. METHODS: 25 patients with grade 2 ptosis were included in this study. Lower Island Flap Transposition (LIFT) technique was modified and either done alone or in combination with lipofilling, whether at the same setting or as a second stage. Preoperative and postoperative measurements and pictures were documented. RESULTS: Lateral upper pole projection measurements showed an average increase of 28.5% equal to about 1.8 cm. As for the maximum breast projection an increase of about 33% accounting for about 2 cm was documented. CONCLUSIONS: This study shows that the combination of LIFT technique after its modification with AFG has proven to be an effective technique with consistent results for patients presenting with grade 2 ptosis and upper pole hollowness. The addition of AFG to the modified LIFT technique can be considered a step forward in achieving autoaugmentation and autologous mastopexy without using implants.
