About the Breast Reduction Procedure
Breast reduction is typically performed on an outpatient basis, and an overnight stay at the surgical facility or hospital is not needed. The operation is always performed with anesthesia.
The incision pattern depends on the size of the breasts, the degree of sagging and the location of the nipple-areola complex. The keyhole or lollipop incision is a common incision pattern made around the areola and vertically down to the breast crease. Another common incision pattern is the anchor incision, which is similar to the lollipop incision but also extends horizontally along the breast crease.
Through the incision, the breast reduction surgeon removes excess breast skin and fat. Asymmetry between the breasts is corrected. The remaining breast skin and tissue is sculpted to form a more youthful-looking breast shape. The nipple-areola complex is moved to a more appropriate position on the reshaped breast mound. If needed, enlarged areolas are reduced in size. The incisionThe surgeon reduces the size of enlarged areolas if necessary.e sports bra-like garment is placed around the breasts.
Bruising, swelling and soreness in the breasts are common postoperative side effects. Oral medication can be taken to quell any discomfort. The breasts look smaller and more proportional almost immediately after surgery, and the results improve over the coming months.
When does breast reduction become medically necessary?
Although there is an aesthetic component, breast reductions are not always purely cosmetic in nature. Large, heavy breasts can cause physical problems and interfere with a woman’s daily functioning. Technically known as symptomatic macromastia, this phenomenon can cause a variety of ailments, including but not limited to the following:
- Chronic pain in the back, neck, and shoulders
- Numbness in the arms and hands
- Shortness of breath
- Migraine headaches
- Sleep disturbances
- Limitations to activity such as aerobic exercise
Conclusion
It is physically and mentally difficult to have large, pendulous breasts. The weight of the breasts can restrict range of motion and mobility, result in bra strap indentations on the shoulders, and cause breathing problems and bad posture. In addition to drawing unwelcome attention from others, having oversized breasts can make one feel ashamed or embarrassed. Breast reduction provides great relief from these issues and produces lighter, smaller breasts.
