The breast organ, which is very important for women, is very valuable for women in terms of its aesthetic, sexual and fertility functions.
Breast sizes disproportionate to your body can cause both aesthetic and health problems. With breast reduction surgery, excess breast tissue and fat around your body are removed, allowing you to achieve your ideal aesthetic and healthy measurements.
Thanks to the reduction operation, women find the opportunity to move more comfortably in their social lives while getting rid of health problems.

Breast reduction surgery can be preferred for aesthetics, health and increased quality of life. Large breasts may be genetic or people with normal sized breasts may experience breast enlargement due to weight gain. Abnormally large breasts negatively affect health and quality of life and cause problems.
In general, women want to undergo breast reduction surgery for the following reasons:
The aim of breast reduction surgery is to provide a breast size suitable for the patient's shoulder, rib cage and neck and the dimensions desired by the patient. The operation takes approximately 2-3 hours. The nipples are moved from below to the possible required part. During these procedures, milk glands and milk ducts are tried to be protected as much as possible in young patients.
The operation is performed by removing breast and fat tissue and is performed on patients who have completed body development. The operation, which is performed under general anaesthesia, is completed in 2.5 to 4 hours using lollipop incision and inverted T incision methods depending on the breast structure. In determining the method, parameters such as breast size, position of the nipple according to the breast fold, breast tissue, skin structure, shoulder width and height of the patient are taken into consideration. In the lollipop incision technique, the circumference of the nipple is cut circularly and excess skin tissue is removed along with the breast tissue. The nipple can be moved upwards in the procedure performed by considering the physical appearance of the patient. The skin is covered with care to prevent damage to the milk gland and ducts, and then the operation is completed by placing a drain in the area to drain the blood collected in the breast according to the patient's body. In the inverted T incision technique, an inverted T-shaped incision is made in the lower part of the breast. Excess breast tissue and skin are cut and the operation is completed as in the lollipop incision technique.
The hospital stay after breast reduction surgery is usually 1 day. Afterwards, you will be called for controls. From the 4th day, shower can be taken. The return to social life and working life is approximately one week. The patient can easily continue her social life with a special bra. At the end of the 2nd week, the bandages are completely removed and the use of cream for the scar is started. People who do active sports are recommended to take a break from sports for 4-6 weeks.

Devamını OkuThis situation varies according to the patient. The size of the breast, the position of the nipple as a result of sagging and the patient's plan to have children are taken into consideration.
The reduction can be performed in such a way that the breastfeeding function is primarily preserved, or the breastfeeding function can be abandoned with the patient's knowledge for adequate reduction and aesthetic appearance.
As with many surgical operations, breast reduction surgery also leaves scars. The techniques and instruments we choose for the patient are selected in such a way as to leave the scars in the least and indefinite way. Depending on the technique used for breast reduction, T, L and I-shaped incision scars may remain at the nipple and below. Since the incision made on the nipple is made on the edges of the brown ring, this scar does not show itself. Downwards from the nipple ring, the scar may remain as a thin line. The scars of the incision made in the lower part of the breast remain underneath so that they cannot be seen from the front. These scars become as indistinct as possible with scar removal creams to be used for about 2 months after the operation.
Breast reduction surgery definitely does not cause cancer, on the contrary, the possibility of developing cancer is reduced with the breast tissue removed.
Before the operation, examinations and tests against cancer are also performed, and the removed breast is sent to pathology and examined in detail whether the patient has breast cancer.
No, there is no permanent loss of sensation. Temporary loss of sensation may occur.
You can get pregnant and breastfeed your child 1 or 2 years after the operation. During this period, your breast tissue will recover and your breastfeeding function will continue.
