The
breast reduction surgery procedure is used to reduce the volume
and weight of women's excessively large breasts.
What
does Breast Reduction surgery do?
It reduces the size of excessively large breasts. If you feel uncomfortable with your breasts or you feel they are unaesthetic, if they make it difficult to find the right clothes, if they make your back or neck hurt or if they make you feel ashamed, then this is the right surgery for you. It lifts hanging breasts due to factors such as age, breastfeeding and gravity. It improves your shape in the same way that a breast lift does but, in this case, reduction is the priority. It reduces the size of the areola, if it is too large.
How
is this surgery performed?
The surgeon draws on the skin
the future location of the nipples. Then he performs a circular
incision around each one of the areolas. If the areola is
too large, the incision may be done inside its outline, so
as to remove the part of it that is nearest to the edge. All
the time, the areola and the nipple are kept joined to the
breast by means of a pedicle. This is very important for preserving
the blood supply and sensibility, and to avoid necrosis. The
surgeon performs a series of incisions under the areolas that
allow him to separate the rest of the skin. He then cuts and
folds the glandular tissue so as to fit the areolas in the
places he previously cut and marked. After that, he cuts and
removes the excess glandular tissue and skin until the breast
reaches the desired volume and shape. Finally, the surgeon
sutures all the incisions.
Hospitalization: You will have to stay hospitalized
for one night. Anesthesia: Local anesthesia and complementary
sedation, or general anesthesia. Length: Two to
four hours, according to the complexity of the case.
The results
The results of breast reduction surgery are permanent. The reduced breasts will not grow again. Your breasts will look better for a long time and you will feel more comfortable and relieved. In spite of the resulting scars, when most women evaluate the outcome, they feel that the benefits obtained far outweigh the negative aspects.
What
does this treatment NOT do?
Even though it will make your body
look more beautiful and harmonious, and it will probably also improve
your self-esteem, It will not be enough to make you look perfect.
We must be realistic and accept that that kind of perfection does
not exist.
It reduces the size of excessively large breasts. If you feel uncomfortable with your breasts or you feel they are unaesthetic, if they make it difficult to find the right clothes, if they make your back or neck hurt or if they make you feel ashamed, then this is the right surgery for you.
