What is breast reduction surgery?

Breast reduction surgery, also known as reduction mammoplasty, is a surgical procedure that removes excess breast tissue, fat, and skin to decrease the size and reshape the breasts. It’s typically performed on women with large and/or sagging breasts experiencing physical or emotional problems due to their size.

Here’s a breakdown of the key points:

Reduce breast size: This can alleviate physical issues like back, neck, and shoulder pain, skin irritation, and difficulty finding fitting clothes.
Improve breast shape: The surgery can address sagging, asymmetry, and other concerns about breast appearance.
Enhance emotional well-being: Many women report increased self-confidence, improved quality of life, and fewer limitations due to their breasts.

Performed under general or local anesthesia.
Takes 2-4 hours in most cases.
Requires a 1-night hospital stay typically.
Recovery time is 1-2 weeks, with limitations on physical activity.

Risks: Like any surgery, there are potential risks like bleeding, infection, scarring, and changes in nipple sensation.

How is breast reduction surgery performed?

Breast reduction surgery, technically called reduction mammoplasty, involves several steps performed under general or local anesthesia, depending on the surgeon’s preference and your medical history.

Here’s a breakdown:

Consultation: You'll discuss your goals, medical history, and expectations with a board-certified plastic surgeon. They'll examine your breasts, take measurements, and discuss different incision patterns and techniques.
Medical Tests: Blood tests, mammograms, and other tests may be required to assess your health and suitability for surgery.
Pre-Surgical Instructions: You'll receive instructions on stopping certain medications, avoiding smoking, and preparing your body for surgery.

Anesthesia: General anesthesia induces sleep and pain relief, while local anesthesia numbs the area around the breasts.
Incisions: The surgeon chooses the incision pattern based on your desired outcome and breast size. Common patterns include:
- T-anchor: Incision around the areola, down the crease under the breast, and across the lower crease.
- Vertical: Similar to T-anchor, but with a single vertical incision down the center of the breast.
- Double anchor: Additional incisions create an anchor shape above the nipple.
Tissue removal: Excess breast tissue, fat, and skin are carefully removed according to the pre-determined plan.
Nipple and areola repositioning: Depending on the amount of tissue removed, the nipple and areola may be repositioned higher on the breast.
Wound closure: The incisions are meticulously closed with absorbable sutures or surgical glue.
Drainage tubes: In some cases, small tubes may be placed temporarily to drain excess fluid.

Recovery: You'll typically spend 1 night in the hospital for observation and pain management.
Bandages and Compression Garments: Your breasts will be bandaged, and you might wear a compression garment to support healing and reduce swelling.
Pain Management: You'll receive pain medication and instructions on managing discomfort at home.
Activity Restrictions: Avoid strenuous activities for several weeks to allow for proper healing.
Wound Care: Follow instructions for cleaning and caring for your incisions to prevent infection.
Follow-up Appointments: Regular check-ups with your surgeon are crucial to monitor healing and address any concerns.

Does getting a breast reduction leave scars?

Breast reduction surgery leaves scars due to necessary incisions. The extent and appearance vary based on the technique, your individual healing, and proper scar care. Scars typically fade over time and become less noticeable, but consultation with Estevien Clinic is crucial for personalized information and scar management strategies.

Recovery from breast reduction surgery

Recovery from breast reduction surgery typically takes 1-2 weeks, with the first week being the most crucial. Here’s what you can expect during each stage:

First week:

Expect pain and discomfort: You’ll likely experience pain around the incisions, which can be managed with medication prescribed by your surgeon.
Limited mobility: Avoid strenuous activities and lifting heavy objects. You may need help with daily tasks like bathing and dressing.
Swelling and bruising: Swelling around the breasts and upper body is normal and will gradually subside over the next few weeks.
Drainage tubes: In some cases, small tubes may be placed to drain excess fluid. Your surgeon will remove them when necessary.
Rest and recuperation: Focus on getting plenty of rest and sleep to promote healing.

Second week:

Increased activity: You can gradually start resuming light activities, but avoid anything that causes pain or discomfort.
Reduced pain: The pain should start to improve, and you may be able to taper off pain medication.
Stitches removal: Your surgeon will remove the stitches during a follow-up appointment.
Compression garment: You may need to continue wearing a compression garment to support healing and reduce swelling.

Third week onwards:

Return to normal activities: Most women can return to their normal activities by the third or fourth week after surgery.
Scarring: Scars will be initially red and raised, but they will gradually fade over time.
Exercise: You can gradually start exercising again, but avoid strenuous activities that put strain on the breasts.
Final results: It may take several months to see the final results of your surgery as swelling subsides and tissues settle.
