What is Breast Reduction?
Breast reduction, also known as reduction mammaplasty, is a surgical procedure designed to decrease the size and reshape the breasts. It is typically performed to alleviate physical discomfort and improve the overall proportion and appearance of the breasts.
Who is a Candidate for Breast Reduction?
Women with overly large breasts who experience physical discomfort such as neck, shoulder, or back pain, as well as skin irritation beneath the breasts, may be candidates for breast reduction surgery. Additionally, those who are unhappy with the appearance of their breasts due to their size may also consider this procedure.
How is Breast Reduction Performed?
Breast reduction surgery involves the removal of excess breast tissue, fat, and skin to achieve a more proportionate breast size. The procedure is typically performed under general anesthesia and may utilize various surgical techniques, including traditional incisions or newer minimally invasive approaches.
What are the Benefits of Breast Reduction?
Benefits of breast reduction surgery may include:
• Alleviation of physical discomfort such as back, neck, and shoulder pain
• Improvement in posture and physical activity levels
• Enhanced self-confidence and body image
• Ability to wear a wider range of clothing styles more comfortably
• Correction of asymmetry between breasts
Recovery and Results
Recovery from breast reduction surgery typically involves a period of rest and limited physical activity. Patients may experience swelling, bruising, and discomfort, which can be managed with pain medication and proper post-operative care. Final results will gradually become apparent as swelling subsides, with full recovery achieved within a few weeks to months.
