Breast Reduction Surgery
Breast reduction surgery is an operation performed on individuals who experience back and neck pain due to the size of their breasts, who face the risk of waist and neck hernia, and who complain that their breasts are more prominent than their bodies.
The fact that the breasts are larger than the body can cause various risks such as pain, humpback and hernia formation. In addition, large breasts can cause sagging problems. Individuals with sagging problems may experience problems such as color change in the under-breast area, bad odor problem and diaper rash. Some individuals also report experiencing pain and numbness during the day due to the pressure of their bras on their nerves.
Such problems can be performed to reduce the size of the breast in proportion to the person’s body, and to eliminate the symptoms caused by the breasts being larger than necessary, with a more aesthetic appearance.
What is Breast Reduction, How is the Surgery Performed?
When we look at what is breast reduction, it is the operation of removing excess fat tissue from the breasts and reshaping by removing excess skin. It is performed under general anesthesia or sedation technique in operating room conditions.In general, it is a process that takes 2-3 hours. After the operation is completed, the person is awakened by wearing a bra-shaped corset and is taken to the ward to be kept under surveillance for 24 hours.After the operation, problems such as bruising, redness, swelling, numbness and edema of the nipples may occur in the breasts and nearby tissues. These are natural conditions arising from the surgical process and will resolve spontaneously over time.In general, individuals can return to their normal lives within 1 week after breast reduction surgery. In this process, people should pay attention to a healthy diet, consume plenty of water, and should not use any drugs other than those prescribed by the plastic surgeon. If you want to use another pain reliever, you should consult your doctor before using it.Any action that may put a load on the chest area, such as exercising, lifting heavy loads, or trying to get things from a high cabinet, should be avoided.Why Do Breasts Sagging?
One of the frequently heard questions in procedures such as breast augmentation and breast reduction in Turkey is why breasts sag.Almost every part of our body can store fat, and as all of our skin stores fat and grows and develops, the skin tissue grows at the same rate and increases its mass. As the skin and breast tissue increase, downward sagging occurs with the effect of gravity.A similar situation occurs in breastfeeding mothers. As the breast area is filled with milk, its mass increases with weight gain. Since the milk secretion stops when the breastfeeding period is completed, the inside of the breasts empties a little and the skin becomes loose and the breasts can hang down. In general, this situation may occur more frequently in the second and third pregnancies, not in the first pregnancies, as the age progresses and the skin loses its elasticity.The Differences Between Breast Lift and Breast Augmentation Surgery?
In the breast lift operation, procedures such as removing the excess skin by lifting the breasts of the individual with sagging problems are discussed. If the breasts are not full and voluminous enough, the implant can be used.Breast augmentation is performed directly to increase the volume of the breast. Although the main purpose of both operations is different, these two operations are often performed within the same operation.
