About Breast Reduction

Breast Reduction Surgery, also referred to as reduction mammaplasty, is a surgical procedure that removes excess fat, tissue, and skin from the breasts. If you have large breasts, you may want to consider breast reduction surgery to alleviate discomfort or achieve a breast size that is proportionate to your body.

Breast Reduction for men, also known as gynecomastia, is a popular procedure among male patients who want to correct sagging, overly large breasts.

Breast Reduction surgery may also improve your self-esteem and ability to engage in physical activities.

Types of Breast Reduction Surgery :

  • Liposuction for Breast Reduction: This is a less invasive and shorter procedure that leaves virtually undetectable scars on the breasts and produces long-term results. The best candidates are those who need or want a slight to moderate reduction in breast size.
  • Vertical Breast Reduction: This could be a good option if you are looking for a technique for moderate breast reduction and have more sagging. It is also a non-invasive procedure. The surgeon will use these incisions to remove access fat, skin, and breast tissue.
  • Inverted -T or Anchor Breast Reduction: This technique requires three incisions. This surgery will allow for the most fat to be removed as well as tissue removal and reshaping. Generally, surgeons use this technique to achieve the best possible results.

Symptoms

  • Chronic shoulder, back, and neck pain.
  • Itchiness beneath the breasts.
  • Deep grooves are caused by bra strap pressure.
  • Physical activity is limited.
  • Sleeping difficulties.
  • Having trouble getting into clothes.
  • Choosing the Right Bra Size.
  • Problems with self-esteem.
  • Exercise is difficult to do.

Risk Factor

Breast Reduction Surgery carries the same risks as other major surgeries, such as bleeding, infection, and anesthesia reaction. Other potential hazards include:

  • Bruising that is usually only transient.
  • Scarring.
  • Sensation loss or removal in the nipples and surrounding skin (areolae).
  • Difficulty or inability to breastfeed.
  • Differences in the size, shape, and symmetry of the surgically altered left and right breasts may necessitate further surgery to improve your appearance.

Investigations

Your plastic surgeon will likely:

  • Evaluate your medical history and overall health.
  • Discuss your expectations for breast size and appearance after the surgery.
  • Provide a detailed description of the procedure and its risks and benefits, including likely scarring and possible loss of sensation.
  • Examine and measure your breasts.
  • Take photographs of your breasts for your medical record.
  • Explain the type of anesthesia used during surgery.

Before breast reduction surgery, you might also be asked to:

  • Complete various lab tests.
  • Get a baseline mammogram.
  • Stop smoking for a certain period of time before and after surgery.
  • Avoid taking aspirin, anti-inflammatory drugs and herbal supplements, to control bleeding during surgery.
