Observations Concerning the Match between Breast Implant Dimensions, Breast Morphometry, and a Patient-reported Outcome.
[BACKGROUND] Outcome studies in breast augmentation do not assess how an implant has been matched to the soft tissue envelope. The study hypothesis is that there is a relationship between breast and implant dimensions and the subjective out…

An Analysis of Ptosis following Subfascial Breast Augmentation: Calculations That Explain Dogma.
[BACKGROUND] Implant placement can improve ptosis due to the position of the nipple, inframammary crease, and base of the breast acting together. The interrelationship between these was quantified via changes in morphometry following subfas…
