Abstract

After massive weight loss (MWL), skin redundancy remains an aesthetic and a
functional problem that remains amenable only by surgical excision. Upper body
deformities include the arms, breast/chest and back. Aim of wok: To classify the various
upper body deformities with view to surgical approach. Patients and methods: 26 MWL
patients were classified according to position of the lateral inframammary folds and
underwent corrective procedures. Conclusion: the lateral inframammary fold position is
a good tools for classifying patients into a group that requires isolated procedures to treat
the upper body deformity (mastopexy/brachioplasty), and a group that needs a unit
approach known as the upper body lift.
