A personalized technique using a vertical scar mastopexy is described. The breast tissue is utilized as a transposition flap behind the nipple-areolar complex to increase its projection. The inferior pole of the breast can be developed either as a superiorly pedicled or inferiorly pedicled flap for that purpose and the indication for each version is described. The technique has been successfully utilized in 80 patients with pleasing results. Illustrative cases are presented.
