In 1969 Dr. Liacyr Ribeiro used the inferior flap technique for
the first time on a patient undergoing a breast reduction.
Initially the inferior flap technique was described as
“pediculo de securidad”, an additional breast flap to use
in an emergency if the surgeon removed too much breast
tissue while performing a breast reduction. Its blood supply
is guaranteed by the perforator vessels coming from the
central lower pole of the breast. I use the inferior flap (a
dermo-adipose-glandular flap) as an autologous local tissue
which works like an implant-thus achieving a conical shape of
the breast, fullness of the upper pole and long-lasting uplift.
My own experience of performing the inferior flap technique
on 190 consecutive patients over the course of 6 years in
Italy and in the United Kingdom is presented and discussed.
The procedure involves a vertical or T-inverted resection
pattern and the tailored inferior flap type 1 as described by L.
Ribeiro in mastopexy with and without implants. The inferior
flap technique is a safe and reliable technique for mastopexy
with and without implant and for breast reduction when
performed by well-experienced surgeons.
