Many methods have been used to make easy skin deepithelization in reduction mammaplasty. The most important is to provide a good tension in order to harvest the skin quickly, easier and without difficulties. Surely, this is the most tedious part of breast reduction, because you need a very good breast tension, so anything that can be done to hasten this step is welcome. We report the application of a polypropilene strap to improve breast tension and deepithelization in breast reduction. This retraction maneuver makes this step of the operation quicker and easier.
