Abstract This paper presents a series of 54 consecutive cases of vertical mastoplasty carried out over the period February 1994 to April 1995. In 30 cases breast reduction was performed, in 19 pure mastopexy, and in the remaining 5, a mastopexy-breast augmentation with a silicon gel prosthesis was carried out. The parameters used for analyzing the persistence of vertical scarring were: inframammary cutaneous folds, wrinkling of the skin, and puckering at 1, 3, and 6 months during the postoperative period. An attempt has been made to establish how the vertical scar has evolved over this period. The study done by age groups as well as the study of the breast's cutaneoglandular characteristics provides data as to with which morphotype and worst results were obtained.
