Reduction mammoplasty is considered a complex operation and requires a well-weighed choice of a surgeon with sufficient qualification and experience in such surgical interferences.
Breast: reduction is like a salvation
Not always a large breast brings its owner pleasant emotions. There is a diagnosis such as gigantomastia (hypermastia), when the mammary glands look disproportionately large in relation to body. With weight loss, glandular tissue cannot become smaller, and a woman becomes a hostage to her natural features.
You can agree on the date and time of the consultation, ask any questions by phone, or fill out the form:
Aesthetic aspects are not the only ones forcing the patients for a decision to correct the breast
Reduction of the size allows to:
- unload the spine;
- get rid of pain in the back and head;
- eliminate overstrain in the shoulder girdle;
- remove the problems of diaper rash, increased sweating in the summer;
- ease the choice of underwear;
- overcome psychological discomfort;
- go in for sports without restrictions;
- feel free in movement;
- visually look younger;
- look slimmer.
Often, the girls without gigantomastia but with a cup size E, F, G would like to make the breast smaller, the shape neater and want to look smaller.
What methods are used for reduction mammoplasty?
The surgeon focuses on several factors:
- degree of breast sagging;
- nature of hypertrophied tissues (fatty, glandular);
- origin of hypermastia (obesity, pregnancy, congenital features, hormonal disorder);
- location (on one or two sides) and other.
Depending on this, the type of access to the breast is chosen:
- Reduction through microcut. It is possible if the breast is free from ptosis, the volume of subcutaneous fat but not glandular tissue is increased. A cannula is inserted into a small puncture and liposuction is performed.
- Cut along areola – periareolar.
- «Keyhole» It is so called due to the similarity of the contours – along the nipple and below in the form of a triangle.
- Incision in the form of an “anchor”. (T-shaped). It outlines the areola, goes down vertically to the underbust crease, and prolongs along it.
Who should postpone reduction mammoplasty
- Young girls under 18 years old.
- Women planning to give birth in the coming year.
- Women with endocrine disorder – first they need to stabilize the endocrine profile so that the results are stable.
