Breast ReductionThe size of a woman's breasts can be determined by several factors such as heredity, body weight and hormonal background. Thus, for some women it may be a problem in adolescence or may not become a nuisance before the average age at menopause. However, the problem of large breasts in all age periods can cause such inconveniences, among which, first of all, back pain, neck pain, marks on the shoulders from bra straps, rashes under the breasts and the feeling of awkwardness. Due to the sexual nature of her breasts too much it can attract unwanted attention from the members of the opposite sex, comments and hints of a sexual nature. They can cause psychological disorders of many women. Most women with large breasts complain that they are very uncomfortable to wear fashionable clothes and engage in active sports, particularly in the summer. The main motivation for treatment to a plastic surgeon for breast reduction surgery is to improve the aesthetic parameters of the breast, and secondly, the correction of the physical discomfort caused by large breasts. Let's consider some options for the breast reduction: Breast reduction by liposuction. The most conservative method that leaves no postoperative sutures. However, it is recommended for small volume breast reduction. The breast is not to be expressed with the degree of ptosis. Breast reduction by a short (vertical) joint. A particularly popular operation among patients. Advantages - short operation time, the sensitivity of the nipple is preserved, the shape of the breast is of a natural, low complication rate. The best breast reduction results in the removal are of up to 800 grams of tissue from one breast. Breast reduction using a T-shaped or anchor incision. This is a classic technique breast reduction. It is recommended when planning a large amount of resection. The drawback is the length of the seam, a long-time operation. Breast reduction at gigantomastia. On very rare occasions the surgeon can use gigantomatia breast amputation technique with the transfer of the nipple in the form of free flaps. This type of breast reduction is rather traumatic, often have problems with acceptability of areolas, breast-feeding will be excluded; the sensitivity of the nipples will be absent. Experienced plastic surgeons try to avoid this method, using sparer breast reduction techniques. Breast Reduction is an operation in which the excess part of adipose tissue is removed from the breast, attached to a slightly different form, and the nipples are shifted to a new position. Simultaneously, breast reduction may be accompanied by a decrease in size of the areolas, and configured to a smaller chest. To carry out breast reduction surgery there are different methods. After any surgery breast reduction there is a seam around the areola breast. After a surgery, sutures may remain different forms, depending on technique chosen by surgeon for breast reduction. At the same plastic surgeon the best option for the operation of each individual case is selected. Breast reduction can be applied to correct the asymmetry, when one breast is much larger than the other one. In such cases, surgery may be combined with other techniques, such as breast lift, or an increase in the opposite direction. |
