What is Breast Reduction?

Also known as reduction mammoplasty, breast reduction is a reconstructive or cosmetic surgical procedure that helps to create smaller, lighter breasts by removing excess glandular tissue, fat, and skin from overly large, heavy and sagging breasts.

Some women experience discomfort caused by overly large breasts, such as back, neck and shoulder pain, stretched skin, and painful and deep indentation from bra straps. All of these problems can be solved by reducing the size of your breasts.

Breast Reduction Procedure

1. The planned incisions will be outlined with a marking pen.
2. An incision will be made.
3. Excessive skin and breast tissue will be removed, without harming the nipple, areola and the breast tissue surrounding them.
4. Flaps of breast will then be developed and sewn together to secure not just the skin, but the breast gland itself, into a smaller configuration. In other words, some skin will be removed to wrap the breast tissue in a tighter envelope. The entire breast, including the nipple, will be moved to a higher level on the chest, thereby giving the breast a new contour.
5. All incisions will be closed with dissolvable stitches and surgical wound tapes.
6. Thick gauze and cotton dressings will be placed for comfort and support.

Advantages and Limitations of Breast Reduction

<Advantages>

Surgery Preparation

· Strictly stop smoking 2 weeks before surgery as smoking increases the risks of complications.
· Stop drinking alcoholic beverages 1 week before surgery.
· Do not eat or drink anything at least 6 hrs before the operation.
· Avoid taking anti-inflammatory drugs, herbal supplements and aspirin as they can increase bleeding.

Breast Reduction Post Care

· Have extra pillows on your bed for support
· Limit the use of your arms for at least 1 to 2 weeks

· Do not smoke as it may delay healing and lead to infection
