Lift the Weight Off Your Shoulders: Breast Reduction Aesthetics (Reduction Mammaplasty)
Lift the Weight Off Your Shoulders: Breast Reduction Aesthetics (Reduction Mammaplasty)
When aesthetic surgery is mentioned, having fuller and larger contours usually comes to mind. However, on the other side of the coin lies the serious health problems caused by breasts that are disproportionately large for the body measurements. Breasts that become excessively large and sag due to genetic factors, hormonal changes, pregnancy, or weight gain deeply affect both the physical health and psychology of women. Chronic pains that can lead to cervical disc hernia, deep grooves left by bra straps on the shoulders, endless rashes under the breasts, and the loss of self-confidence caused by not being able to wear desired clothes are the most well-known consequences of this condition.
At Op. Dr. Buğçe Ballıoğlu's clinic, we permanently relieve you of that heavy burden with a surgical approach that best understands female anatomy and the difficulties this condition creates. Breast Reduction (Reduction Mammaplasty) is not just an aesthetic touch; it is a medical liberation operation that takes your quality of life to the top.
How is Breast Reduction Surgery Performed?
A personalized plan is made taking into account the person's shoulder width, rib cage structure, and body proportion. Our goal is not only to reduce the breast but also to create an upright, symmetrical, and aesthetic form:
- Removal of Excess Tissue: During the surgery, excess fat, glandular tissue, and sagging, loosened skin in the breast are removed with millimetric calculations. The volume of the breast is reduced to the ideal weight that the body can carry.
- Reshaping and Lifting: The nipple and areola are moved to their youthful, higher position where they should be. The remaining tissue is gathered, giving the breast that dreamed upright and conical shape.
- Scar Management: Depending on the technique applied (Inverted T, Lipo, or Lollipop incision), the scars are closed with aesthetic stitches to be hidden around the nipple and under the breast. Over time, these scars take on the skin color and become quite indistinct.
Recovery Process and Increase in Quality of Life
After the operation, which takes an average of 2.5 to 3 hours under general anesthesia, you will be our guest in the hospital for 1 or 2 nights. The day after the surgery, when you stand up, you will instantly feel that the massive burden on your shoulders is gone, your neck is relaxed, and you can stand upright. You will be asked to use a special medical bra for about 3-4 weeks. You can easily return to your desk job within 10-15 days.
If you want to get rid of that weight you have been carrying for years, move freely, and wear any clothes you want with confidence, you can schedule an appointment with Op. Dr. Buğçe Ballıoğlu for your breast reduction planning right now.
Results of any surgical or interventional procedure may vary from person to person. It is recommended to get a detailed consultation from your physician before the procedure.
