Breast reduction

Breast reduction, also known as mammareductionplasty, is a surgical procedure that reduces the size and weight of the breast. Many women opt for this operation to relieve discomfort such as back or neck pain, skin irritation or restrictions on certain activities. Of course, an improvement in breast aesthetics is also relevant for the women concerned. By removing excess skin, fatty and glandular tissue, a breast shape and size that is proportional to the body is achieved..

Breast reduction is performed under general anaesthesia. The surgeon removes excess tissue and tightens the remaining breast, primarily to achieve a smaller volume, but also a harmonious shape. In addition, the nipple is always lifted or moved in its position. In this way, an aesthetically pleasing result can be achieved. The operation takes about 3 hours, depending on the initial volume.

As with any surgical procedure, there are some risks and possible complications associated with breast reduction. These can include temporary swelling, bruising, infection, irregular scarring and asymmetry. It is important that you have a thorough and individual consultation with the surgeon and clarify any questions you may have before having surgery.

After the operation, you should rest for a few days and follow your surgeon’s instructions in order to support the healing process and achieve an optimal result.
