Breast Reduction

Breast reduction, or reduction mammoplasty, is a surgical procedure aimed at reducing the size and weight of large breasts. This operation not only improves the proportion and appearance of the breasts but also alleviates discomfort and physical limitations associated with overly large breasts.

Symptoms/Indications

  • Chronic back, neck, and shoulder pain
  • Skin irritation and rashes under the breast crease
  • Bra strap indentations on the shoulders
  • Limited physical activity due to breast size
  • Poor posture and difficulty finding clothing that fits
  • Emotional distress and self-consciousness about breast size

Treatments

    Surgical Techniques:
  • Liposuction : Removes excess fat from the breasts. Suitable for minor reductions and those with good skin elasticity.
  • Vertical or Lollipop Incision : Involves a circular incision around the areola and a vertical incision down to the breast crease. Ideal for moderate reductions and lifting.
  • Inverted-T or Anchor Incision : Involves three incisions—around the areola, vertically from the areola to the breast crease, and along the breast crease. Suitable for significant reductions and reshaping.
    Procedure
  • Consultation : Comprehensive evaluation with a board-certified plastic surgeon to discuss goals, examine breast anatomy, and choose the appropriate surgical method.
  • Surgery : Performed under general anesthesia, the surgeon makes the necessary incisions to remove excess breast tissue, fat, and skin. The remaining tissue is reshaped, and the nipples are repositioned for a natural look.
  • Recovery : Involves several days of rest with restricted physical activities. Pain, swelling, and bruising are common but subside over time. Patients typically wear a special support bra to aid healing and maintain the new breast shape.
    Results
  • Reduced breast size and weight
  • Relief from physical discomfort and pain
  • Improved body posture and ease of movement
  • Enhanced breast shape and proportion
  • Boost in self-confidence and quality of life

Breast reduction is a transformative procedure that can significantly improve both physical and emotional well-being. It's essential to consult with an experienced plastic surgeon to ensure a safe and effective outcome tailored to individual needs and expectations.
