Objectives: Many techniques exist for post-bariatric mammoplasty, and vertical and inverted-T mammoplasty are most commonly used. In general, inverted –T incision is easier than vertical incision in achieving symmetry as precise skin markings and skin/glandular excision are easier to achieve.
It is more difficult to achieve symmetry in vertical mammoplasty. In vertical mammoplasty, preoperative markings should be done carefully. Position the new nipple-areola complex is lowered 1–2 cm on the larger side in cases of asymmetry. After glandular excision, remaining glandular tissue should be assessed for symm
