Surgery Procedure
Breast reduction surgery normally takes about two to five hours if there is no much complications. In the surgery the surgeon will make a cut around your nipple then downward on the breast in the form of a keyhole. The operating team will remove extra skin, tissue, and fat from your breasts and re position your nipple. Surgeon may use drainage tubes and then stitch up your breasts and wrap them in a special gauze. You may also need to wear a surgical bra. The healinh time of the surgery depends on the condition of the body.
Breast reduction is a safe procedure with significant results.
- The breasts will look smaller, better-shaped and firmer after the surgery.
- There will be less strain on the back and neck, which will result in the disappearance of the back and neck pain.
- A woman will no longer experience indentation marks on her shoulders from bra straps.
- Irritation of the skin underneath the breasts should be reduced.
- If a woman experiences any breathing problems before the surgery, those should be absent after the breasts have been reduced.
- A woman will feel more self-confident and comfortable about her body.
- If reduction mammaplasty is performed after breast reconstruction of another breast, the reduced breast will look more alike in shape and size to the reconstructed breast.
