What is Breast Reduction?
A Breast Lift, or mastopexy, is a surgical procedure designed to elevate and reshape sagging breasts. Over time, factors such as ageing, pregnancy, breastfeeding, and gravity can lead to a loss of breast firmness and a downward shift in nipple position.
Why Choose Breast Reduction?
- Alleviate Physical Discomfort: Breast reduction can relieve chronic back, neck, and shoulder pain caused by the weight and size of overly large breasts. It can also mitigate bra strap grooving and skin irritation in the breast crease.
- Enhance Physical Activity: Women with large breasts often face challenges in participating in physical activities and exercise. Breast reduction can enable a more active and comfortable lifestyle.
- Improved Body Proportions: Breast reduction surgery reshapes the breasts to achieve a more balanced and proportionate figure, enhancing overall body contours.
The Breast Reduction Procedure
- Initial consultation: During your consultation, the plastic surgeon will evaluate your breast size and shape, discuss your goals and expectations, and determine if you are a suitable candidate for breast reduction.
- Anaesthesia: Breast reduction surgery is typically performed under general anaesthesia to ensure your comfort throughout the procedure.
- Incision Placement: The surgeon will make incisions in predetermined locations based on your specific needs. Common incision patterns include anchor-shaped (inverted T), vertical, or short scar incisions. The choice of incision pattern will depend on the degree of reduction required and the desired outcome.
- Tissue Removal and Reshaping: Excess breast tissue, fat, and skin are carefully removed, and the remaining breast tissue is reshaped and lifted to create a more proportionate and aesthetically pleasing breast contour.
- Nipple and Areola Repositioning: In most cases, the nipples and areolas are repositioned to a more youthful position on the newly shaped breast mound.
- Incision Closure and Recovery: Once the desired reduction and reshaping are complete, the incisions are closed with sutures, and you will be provided with post-operative instructions to facilitate your recovery.
