Breast Reduction
Overly large, disproportionate breasts can cause a tremendous amount of discomfort for women. Pain in the shoulders, neck and back is often the most problematic symptom associated with excessively large breasts.Reasons for Breast Reduction
Other issues include skin irritation (from bra straps or underneath the breast crease), stretched skin, enlarged areolas or just dissatisfaction with overall appearance related to the breasts. All of these factors can negatively affect a woman's health. They can lead to a decrease in physical activity, which, as most people know, is crucial to maintaining a healthy weight and healthy heart.What is Breast Reduction?
Breast reduction surgery (also known as reduction mammaplasty) is the removal of excess fat, skin and glandular tissue from the breast. The ideal result of this operation is an evenly proportioned figure, characterized by a more manageable breast size in relation to the body. Another important goal of breast reduction is to alleviate the physical discomfort associated with overly large breasts.The procedure is usually performed through incisions made on the breast. There are several different incision methods to consider and each will depend on the patient's unique conditions and needs.
In general terms: the surgeon will administer an anesthetic or sedative (whatever is appropriate), the proper incisions will be made, breast tissue will be removed or repositioned and the areola will be reduced, if necessary. After that, the incisions will be closed with deep sutures, which also provide support to the reshaped breast.
