Breast reduction also called\u00a0mammoplasty\u00a0<\/strong>It consists of an intervention in which the size of the breasts is reduced by extracting fat from them and taking advantage of it to achieve greater firmness in them. On numerous occasions it is also used to reduce the size of the areola. Many patients decide to have this operation due to the excessive pain they notice in their back and neck, and there are even many who feel small irritations under the skin of the breast or respiratory problems.<\/p>\n

It is called\u00a0breast hypertrophy<\/strong>\u00a0this increase in breast volume, leaving it with an excessive size and larger than usual. This type of alteration can occur during puberty and can even cause stretch marks on the chest. In the case of adult women, it causes the breast to become larger and even harder.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Reduction mammoplasty has as its main purpose\u00a0reduce the size of female breasts<\/strong>. To do this, part of the fat is extracted from them through the openings that are made and that, later, will become scars. Due to the extraction of this glandular excess, a more proportionate and natural breast shape is obtained.<\/p>\n

After lifting the skin and extracting the necessary fat, the surgeon will place the areola again in the corresponding place, leaving it somewhat smaller than before the intervention.<\/p>\n

This operation lasts around\u00a02h or 3h<\/strong>\u00a0and is performed under general anesthesia. It is an intervention that has little risk and for which prior hospitalization will not be necessary unless the surgeon indicates otherwise.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Operation of\u00a0reduction mammoplasty<\/strong>\u00a0Like the rest of the operations, it will be carried out in one way or another depending on the type of patient in question and the characteristics and appearance of the chest. If we have to differentiate the type of scar that may remain after the intervention, we distinguish:<\/p>\n

Around the areola and nipple.<\/p>\n

Vertical from the areola to the submammary crease.<\/p>\n

Inverted T-shaped scar that runs from the areola to the fold through the nipple. It consists of a minimal, almost invisible line.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
