How is Breast Reduction Surgery Performed?
In breast reduction surgery, breast tissue and skin are adjusted according to the patient’s body proportion. To minimize the total size of the breast and also reshape the breast itself and reposition the nipple to create a higher bustline, the breast reduction procedure includes the removal of excess breast and skin tissue.
After a breast reduction operation, it is inevitable to have some scars. These scars are circular around the areola and the nipple has an inverted T-shape downwards. There is no incision horizontally made under the breast in recent surgical techniques. Only an incision that goes around the nipple and downwards the nipple is made.
Breast reduction surgery is performed under general anaesthesia and generally lasts a total of 2,5-4 hours.
