In our study mean value of immediate postoperative IMF-N was 7.33cm, and After 6 months the mean value of postoperative IMF-N was 8cm. So, triplicated inferior pedicle is to obtain the benefits and avoid the most annoying complication and maintain the shape of breast after breast reduction without significant difference in postoperative complications.
