Breast Reduction

Breast Reduction

Breast reduction is a surgical procedure to reduce the size of the breasts by removing fat, breast tissue and skin to make them smaller, lighter and firmer.

Patients who decide to undergo breast reduction are women who have the following problems:

  • Pain in the upper back, neck or shoulders.
  • ERecurrent rashes under the breasts.
  • Stretch marks on the breasts.
  • Recurrent breast cyst infections.

Depending on the size of the breast, there are different techniques. In this regard, different incisions around the areola, vertical and horizontal in the inframammary fold (anchor-shaped), are usually necessary. This procedure is exactly like the one used for breast lift.

The surgery is performed under general anaesthesia and requires an overnight stay in hospital.

A bandage will be applied and this will be changed 48 hours after the surgery, replacing it with a non-wired bra, which will be worn for a month.

After surgery it is important to use essential oils on the scar and to continue moisturising the skin for another three months.
