breast reduction

Woman with very large, pendulous breast may experience a variety of medical problems caused by the excessive weight from back and neck pain and skin irritation to skeletal deformities and breathing problems. Bra straps may leave indentation in their shoulders. Unusually large breasts can make a woman or a teenage girl feel extremely self conscious.

Breast reduction is an operation that is usually considered a reconstructive procedure and is many times covered by insurance plans. The surgery is performed to make the breasts smaller, as well as lift the breasts to a more youthful position. The purpose of the surgery is to alleviate back and neck pain as well as to aid in hygiene in the folds underneath the breasts.

The risks of complications like in most surgeries, include bleeding, infection. Reaction to the anesthesia is uncommon. The procedure does leave noticeable permanent scars, thru time this will be less visible. Future breast feeding may not be possible, since the surgery removes many of the milk ducts leading to the nipples. Some patients may experience a reduction or loss of feeling in their nipples and breasts, caused by the swelling after surgery. This usually fades over the next six weeks or so. In some patients, however, it may last a year or more, and occasionally it may be permanent.

It’s important to discuss your expectations with honesty so that the Doctor can give his professional advice. He will examine and measure your breast, describe the procedure in detail, explain the probable results as well as the risks, limitations and scarring that may result. Pictures are used for reference during surgery and afterwards for result comparing.

Your surgery itself usually takes two to four hours, but may take longer in some cases. Most of the patients are discharged the same day or the following day. This procedure is performed under general anesthesia, you’ll be asleep through the entire operation. The procedure removes excess glandular tissue, fat, and skin, and moves the nipple and areola into their new position.

Then the skin is brought from both sides of the breast down and around the areola, shaping the new contour of the breast. Liposuction may be used to remove excess fat from the arm-pit area.

You’ll be wrapped in an elastic bandage or a surgical bra over a gauze dressing. A small tube may be placed in each breast to drain off blood and fluids for the first or two days. You may feel some pain for the first couple of days and some discomfort for a week or more, but we will prescribe medication to lessen the pain. The stitches will be removed in one to three weeks.
