Previous aesthetic breast surgery algorithms have not addressed the importance of evaluating the native inframammary fold before primary breast augmentation.

In the authors’ experience, assessment of native inframammary fold anatomy significantly impacts surgical planning and technique.

Failure to adequately evaluate and manage the inframammary fold leads to many of the common problems of the lower pole, including double-bubble deformity.

The authors assessed the inframammary fold preoperatively in 2192 consecutive patients undergoing primary breast augmentation between June of 2014 and December of 2018.

A novel classification of inframammary fold morphology was devised based on review of standardized preoperative photographs.

Outcome assessment was performed postoperatively at 3-month intervals.
