English term or phrase: scar averaging (26,5 cm) long per breast

S'agit-il de la longueur de la cicatrice au niveau de la poitrine dans son ensemble (ce que laisse supposer la longueur indiquée !!) ou au niveau de chaque sein ?

Voici la phrase (compte-rendu d'étude clinique) :
"Mammaplastic surgery involving 68 patients (44 reductions and 24 bilateral mastopexies) who underwent reduction at an average age of 44 years and mastopexy at an average age of 40 years, resulting in scars averaging 26,5 cm long per breast for reduction mammaplasty (including periareolar suture and vertical and horizontal incision of the inframammary fold) and 16 cm long for mastopexy (including periareolar suture and the vertical incision)."
