Know more about Breast Reduction Surgery

Breast reduction is a surgical procedure to remove excess breast fat, glandular tissues, and the skin to achieve a breast size proportionate to the body. Overly large breasts can be responsible for many health conditions such as neck pain, back pain, fungal infections, skin irritation beneath the breast crease, etc. Besides health issues, constant embarrassment can also impact the mental health of a person and make women feel self-conscious about their bodies. Therefore, the surgery can relieve a person from discomfort associated with large, pendulous breasts. Breast reduction surgery is also known as mammoplasty.

He is highly specialized in cosmetic as well as reconstructive plastic surgery. Over the years, he has performed almost 4,000 surgeries in India as well as Dubai.

How is breast reduction surgery performed?

For breast reduction, the surgeon can use any one or both the approaches from the following.

Surgery through incisions
Liposuction

During this procedure, the surgeon makes an incision around the areola and down each breast. The excess breast tissue, fat, and skin are removed to reduce the size of each breast. The breasts are reshaped according to the requirement. If the breasts are very large, the nipple and areola might be removed and then reattached at a higher position. The surgeon ensures the symmetry between the breasts, but some variation might be observed in breast shape and size. The size of the areola might be reduced.

Liposuction is one of the safest body contouring procedures and also minimally invasive. It can reduce up to 50 % of breast size only if there is a sufficient proportion of fat tissue more than the glandular tissues found in the breast. This is an ideal option for people who wants a little modification without changing the breast’s general shape and nipple position. Therefore, liposuction results in a smaller version of the same breasts and a subtle lift, which results from reduced weight and elasticity of the skin.
