In the Blog and Video, Which are Posted on
the Atlantic Coast Aesthetics Website, Dr. Pane Answers an
Interesting Question from a Follower about a Specific Part of the
Mommy Makeover
PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla.,
May 17, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Dr.
Thomas A. Pane, a double-board
certified plastic surgeon and founder of Atlantic Coast Aesthetics,
is pleased to announce that he has posted a new "Ask Dr. Pane" blog
and video to his website regarding a specific part of the mommy
makeover procedure.
The blog and video are in response to a question sent in by one
of his followers on social media that asked "I'm having a mommy
makeover; I have large breasts do I need a free nipple graft?"

As Dr. Pane explained, when he performs a breast lift or
reduction, the external scars typically form an inverted T shape,
circling around the areola, down the breast, and along the base
curve.
"However, what's happening internally can vary based on the
technique used," he noted, adding that in his practice, he
prioritizes preserving the nipple by carrying it on a segment of
tissue as it's repositioned.
"While it's rare for me to encounter cases where the nipple
needs to be completely removed as a free nipple graft, it can
happen if the breasts are exceptionally large."
When the tissue segment supporting the nipple is extremely large
and long, making closure of the breast difficult or impossible to
do safely, a free nipple graft may be necessary, Dr. Pane noted,
adding that there are drawbacks to this, including the loss of
sensation and the inability to breastfeed.
Because of these issues, Dr. Pane said the free nipple graft is
less preferable compared to preserving the nipple with the natural
tissue.
"Fortunately, in my practice, these instances are uncommon,
thanks to the techniques I've learned and refined over time," he
said.
"While I've integrated a combination of techniques into my
practice, the emphasis on preserving the nipple whenever possible
stems from this early training."
Even though Dr. Pane does not need to use a free nipple graft
very often, he stressed that it is extremely important to carefully
assess each one of his patients, and consider factors like breast
size, sensation and overall health.
"Ultimately, our goal is to provide safe, effective procedures
with minimal risk and optimal outcomes. We encourage anyone with
questions or concerns to reach out, and we'll be happy to address
them," he said.
