Breast Reduction Surgery is performed under general anesthesia. The duration of the operation varies between 2 and 4 hours. During the operation, the surgeon chooses an appropriate technique according to the size, shape and degree of sagging of the breasts.

Within the scope of Breast Reduction, 3 incisions are made around the nipple, downward from the nipple or in the inframammary fold. Excess breast tissue, fat and skin are removed through these incisions. The nipple and areola (the dark area around the nipple) are moved higher and reduced in size. The breast tissue is reshaped and lifted. The incisions are closed with mini stitches. After the operation, the breasts are dressed and a special bra is worn.

Breast Reduction Surgery 

Breast Reduction Surgery is a surgical procedure applied to people who have both aesthetic and health problems due to their breasts being larger and saggy than normal. In this treatment, excess fat, connective, secretory tissues and skin tissue are removed from the breast and the size of the breast is made small and regular. Thus, with Breast Reduction Surgery, both the appearance of the breasts is improved and problems such as back, shoulder, neck pain, diaper rash, fungus, infection or wound formation under the breast, bra strap wounds, physical activity limitation that occur due to breast size are eliminated.

There are 2 basic techniques used in Breast Reduction Surgery;

  • Lollipop Incision
  • Inverted T Incision

In the lollipop incision method, an incision is made around the nipple and from the nipple to the under breast. This method leaves less scarring but may not be sufficient for very large breasts. In the inverted T incision method, a horizontal incision is made under the breast in addition to the lollipop incision. This method leaves more scars but gives better results in very large breasts. Your doctor decides which method to apply according to the condition of your breast.
