Plastic Surgery - Breast Reduction
Breast Reduction
Reduction and lifting of excessively large breasts causing back and neck pain by removing excess tissue.
About the Operation
Breast reduction (reduction mammoplasty) addresses both functional complaints — such as lower back, back, and neck pain caused by the weight and size of the breasts, bra strap grooves, and inframammary rashes or fungal infections — and aesthetic disproportion. Excess glandular tissue, fat, and skin are removed, and the nipple is repositioned to its ideal, elevated anatomical position.
Application Details
- 1Excess lipid and glandular tissues that make the breast excessively heavy are resected (removed).
- 2The nipple-areola complex is transposed to a higher position while preserving its viability.
- 3Minimal scarring is achieved using lollipop (inverted-T) or vertical scar techniques.
Who Is It Suitable For?
- Those experiencing severe back/neck pain and shoulder grooving due to macromastia
- Patients who struggle to find clothing and are distressed by their breast size
- Women whose breasts droop down to the level of the navel
