Abstract
This study was based on the results of a retrospective analysis of the correction of tubular breast deformity of type II–III using lipofilling technology and a recurrent blocking suture. Analysis of the results of correction of tubular breast deformity using the developed method showed that the incidence of specific complications of mild and moderate degree does not exceed 6%. No serious complications were identified in this study. The results of the BREAST-Q questionnaire survey showed a significant improvement in the quality of life and a high degree of patient satisfaction with the aesthetic result of corrective surgery using lipofilling technology. Based on the results of the study, it can be concluded that the developed method using lipofilling technology and a return blocking suture can be considered the method of choice for correcting type II–III tubular breast deformity.
