摘要：

The aesthetic outcomes of wise pattern-based breast reduction and mastopexy procedures are significantly influenced by the final scar quality, which is directly impacted by the suturing technique. Over the past century literature on suture placement has remained limited, with little advancement in tissue approximation methods. The success of conventional suturing depends on the surgeon's skills and expertise and the selection of suture material. Proper deep placement of absorbable sutures is essential to reduce risks; in fact, incorrect placement can lead to complications such as poor scar quality and negative psychological effects on the patient, and occasionally more severe issues like delayed wound healing. Our experience with a running suturing technique for wise pattern-based mammoplasty indicates that reducing the number of knots can lead to a better overall experience for both the patient and the surgeon. This technique may improve aesthetic results, decrease complications, and streamline the surgical process.Level of Evidence IV This journal requires that authors assign a level of evidence to each article.
