Aim: Currently the technique adopted in our country for the reduction mammoplasty, involves the inverted T scar, which remains in the infra-areolar area. While recently there has been a trend towards scar reduction thereby, attaining a better aesthetic outcome. Methods: In our study a no vertical inferior pedicle reduction technique was carried out in 24 patients. Monthly follow-ups for 6 months to 1 year as well as patient and doctor satisfaction were recorded. Additionally, the most current photos of each patient were evaluated for aesthetic results. Results: The results were all satisfactory with no major complications. Conclusion: in conclusion it was found that the no vertical technique, showed long term patient satisfaction as well as better aesthetic outcome in terms of scar visibility.
