Breast reduction: how the operation is performed

Before the surgical intervention in accordance with the plan, the doctor draws markings on the skin of the breast. An intravenous catheter is placed, through which special drugs, including anesthesia, are administered. The surgery is performed under  general anesthesia, it can take from 2 to 3 hours.

The doctor chooses the method of breast lift and breast reduction surgery depending on the patient’s original size and preferences.

Stages:Stages:

  • Tissue incision around the nipple
  • Removal of excess tissue and skin
  • Skin-to-skin connection

Breast reduction – technologies are universal, it is possible to customize a surgery plan for almost any case. A part of the skin, fatty tissue and gland is surgically removed, and the nipple and areola are moved to a normal aesthetic position. All anatomical features must be taken into account in order to preserve breast function and skin sensitivity.

In most cases, an anchor breast lift is performed along with breast reduction. The difference is that a breast lift can be performed with reduction of the gland and fatty tissue or just for the skin (to get rid of ptosis). The goal of these two types of surgical manipulation is to achieve in the end a beautiful,  maximize the natural aesthetic appearance of the breast. But after reduction of the glandular tissue, the size and shape can change to a large extent.

Breast reduction: surgery done professionally if

  • The individual features of the mammary gland have been preserved and emphasized
  • The shape and size look attractive and match other shapes and features of the figure
  • No complications or consequences after surgery
  • Was able to reduce the breasts and give the shape and size that the patient ordered
  • Scarring and surgical marks are minimal

The recovery period depends on the individual characteristics of the patient and on the volume of surgical manipulations in the process of surgical intervention. After reduction mammoplasty and anchor breast lift may remain drains on the operated areas for 1-3 days.

Good clinics use expensive and high-quality materials, including threads, from world brands, with a guarantee. Sutures with such materials are applied intradermally and do not require removal, because they resorb on their own. This technology of suturing incisions allows you to get an inconspicuous and smooth scar;

To make the recovery process faster, clinics offer programs of cosmetic procedures, using special equipment. Additional cosmetic services help to reduce scars after surgery.

How rehabilitation works

  • For the first 2-3 days, the patient stays in the clinic or at home under the supervision of a doctor. Some patients feel pain, in which case painkillers are used.
  • Already on day 2, the elastic bandage is changed to a bandage.
  • The pain sensation is noticeably reduced on day 3-4.
  • On day 2-3, the patient is discharged and undergoes  outpatient rehabilitation.
  • It is mandatory to wear compression underwear.
  • You can get up, walk, and eat a few hours after surgery.
  • It is important to limit physical activity in the first month, after surgery.
