What is it about?
The technique is based on original refinements of the vertical breast reduction and aims at the safe and aggressive sculpture of an attractive breast mound with minimal scarring and long-lasting results. The technique is based upon a selective breast liposuction plus a superior pedicle breast reduction with a vertical scar skin pattern. A thorough and selective liposuction of the breast mound reduces the breast cone base width safely and with virtually no limitations, thus breaking a taboo of traditional breast reduction techniques.

Why is it important?
The basic principle is to convert a large breast into a middle-sized one with a selective breast liposuction, making the vertical scar superior pedicle breast reduction the most appropriate technique for all cases.
Perspectives
A versatile technique based on a sound basic principle. Over the years I developed a number of refinements but the basic principle did not change: it simply was a good idea.
