BREAST REDUCTION

BREAST REDUCTION

Breast Reduction Surgery is a procedure for surgically reshaping exceptionally large breasts to increase comfort and satisfaction. Large breasts can dominate a woman’s appearance and give an unbalanced physical profile. At Secret Surgery Ltd, we understand how overly large breasts frequently have a considerable impact on a woman’s self-confidence


For numerous women, it’s not just the aesthetic issues they want to address in considering a Surgical Breast Reduction, for many it is also about feeling physically better, as many women experience problems associated with overly large breasts such as back pain, neck pain, and skin irritations to even more serious issues like skeletal deformations and breathing problems. One of the most common problems comes from the bra straps. They’re pushed to the limit and that means often enough painful indents in your skin. All of these lead to being self conscious about your body.


The aim of surgery is to give you smaller, shapelier breasts that are in proportion to the rest of your body, which is the objective of most women seeking this procedure.


The medical term for this procedure is Reduction Mammoplasty. The parts of the body that can be removed are the skin, fat and glandular tissues which makes the breast smaller and lighter. You would be amazed at how little weight needs to come off to feel a big difference. Not only are the breasts smaller but the darker skin around the nipples is reduced as well in most cases.


Some Breast Reduction procedures are carried out in tandem with a breast lift procedure, a Breast Reduction and Lift is an ideal choice for women who wish to improve the shape and the position of their breasts. Some women also desire an increase in volume and size, Breast Implants may be inserted in conjunction with a Breast Lift.


Am I a Candidate for Breast Reduction Surgery

The best candidates for Breast Reduction Surgery are well-adjusted women who understand the purpose of the procedure. Patients with any combination of these conditions or symptoms may be good candidates for breast reduction surgery with our skilled cosmetic surgeons in Poland.


Women that have pendulous ‘sagging breasts’ (often signifies more glandular tissue than fat)

Women who are thin (thin women tend to have more glandular tissue than fat)

Women that have excessively large breasts

Women that have excessively dense breast tissue (often signifies more glandular tissue than fat)

Women before menopause (during menopause fat replaces glandular tissue)

In most cases, Breast Reduction Surgery cannot be done until the breasts are fully grown, usually by age 18.

A woman who intends to breast-feed a baby probably should not have the procedure. It’s preferable to delay the procedure until she has had all her children.

Women whose breasts are sagging but not too large might receive more benefit from a Breast Lift, also known as Mastopexy.

You are also at increased risk for complications if you have diabetes, poor circulation, heart, lung or liver disease, smoke, have a family history of blood clots, take certain medications, etc.
