Many surgeons use a manuveur similar to the Laser Bra lift. It is not a completely different technique but merely tries to use the dermis of the breast tissue to provide some internal support. In order to use the dermis, the epidermis needs to be removed. Most surgeons, like myself, have used a scalpel to do this. The use of a laser to destroy the epidermis is another method. It has little to do with the pedicle techniques, the skin flap patterns, the placement or quality of scars, or the shaping of the breast in general. Whether ot not any of this additional internal dermal support is helpful is not clear since the breast skin in reduction is often attenuated and thin to begin with.
The Laser Bra is just a concept that has been labeled in an enterprising way. Of course that does not mean there is anything wrong or not useful, just that it is only a small piece of a complex puzzle for which there are many solutions. Often, it the the surgeon who can customize a procedure to fit your anatomy and desires that will serve you well, not someone who applies the same technique to all comers. It is especially important to formulate your own specific desires of your outcome and to find a surgeonwho will listen to you.
