Breast Reduction Information

As most of you know, I had a breast reduction January 11, 2013. It was needed because my breast were large and they were causing me to have back, neck and shoulder pain. My recovery process went smooth and I've healed up well.

I received some useful information from Dr. Elizabeth Harris & The Center for Cosmetic Surgery. If you are thinking about having surgery but have not done any research then here's some great information for you!


Less Is More: The Benefits of Breast Reduction

 

Most people are familiar with the concept and motivations behind breast augmentation surgery. However, another fairly common request made in plastic surgery of which many people are not aware.  Successful breast reduction surgery demonstrates that sometimes less really is more.

 

While many women want to augment the size of their breasts to create a more pleasing contour, others have found that their breasts are too large or have acquired an unpleasing shape. A special procedure in cosmetic surgery allows surgeons to remove varying amounts of breast tissue. The results leave women with breasts that are still generously proportioned but attractive as well.

 

Women's breasts sometimes cause pain due to natural development or age. Other times, childbirth and breastfeeding can lead to breasts that hang pendulously and discomfort women with their burdens. Fortunately, this issue can be solved through breast reduction.

 

How Do Breast Reductions Work?

 

The standard and most popular form of incision used to perform breast reduction is known as the lollipop. This creates less scarring than any other approach.  Surgeons cut around the border of the nipple and also make an incision straight down from the nipple to the inframammary crease. Excess breast tissue is removed through this incision.

 

Sometimes, women with very large breasts must undergo an anchor incision. This includes the lollipop with an added horizontal incision that runs along the inframammary crease. With either approach, breastfeeding may be difficult in the future due to the damage to tissue surrounding the nipple.

 

Benefits of Breast Reduction

 

·         Appearance

Breast reductions do not simply remove breast tissue. The removal allows the breasts to regain a certain contour that lifts the nipples higher. The results are breasts which look much more attractive.

 

·         Comfort

Very large breasts are burdensome. Their weight can cause significant back pain, which breast reduction can help alleviate.

 

·         Freedom

After breast reductions, many women report happiness at being able to do many things without their oversized breasts getting in the way.

  1. Thanks for the post. As you said, BA is a pretty popular surgical treatment to help women achieving the breast size they dream of. But if the size and shape exceeds a limit and cause any other health issues, this will be surely a curse to us. The shared details on breast reduction surgery clearly explains why and how it is beneficial to men/women. Hope you will have more such posts in future.

  2. I am so glad you made this post! My sister has been considering breast reduction because she has been having a lot of pain and discomfort, especially in her lower back. My favorite benefit that you posted was "freedom", because a lot of people don't realize how large breasts can severely impact your quality of life! I will have to share your post with my sister.

  3. My sister has a girl on her basketball team with very large breasts. It is really hard for the girl to play basketball and do other things. She tells the team that she is going to get a breast reduction. I hope that she is able to get one because of how many problems could be caused in the future, due to the size of her chest. http://www.liplasticsurgery.com/services/breast/breast-reduction-reduction-mammaplasty/

  10. Thanks for sharing the information. I think as it includes surgical cutting instruments, there are risk of side effect or causes a healing problem. Why not choose the non surgical body contouring treatment in Lahore including fat freezing and fat melting under the administration of professionals.
