Breast reduction (reduction mammoplasty) is an operative intervention aimed at removing excessive amounts of fat and glandular breast tissue, excising excess skin and positioning the areal complex in a higher position.
Breast lift or reduction mammoplasty is a surgical procedure aimed at reducing disproportionately large and heavy mammary glands, improving the size and shape of the breast.
Breast reduction is performed with hypertrophy (excessive development), manifestation of the consequences of excess weight of the breast (too large breasts often cause muscle tension and pain in the shoulder, neck, development of cervical osteochondrosis, the appearance of intertrigos and skin irritation).
In addition, breast reduction is required if the breast size does not match the overall body composition, making it difficult to select underwear and clothes, disrupts the proportions of the figure, reduces physical activity, leads to a violation of posture.
Reduction mammoplasty allows you to harmonize the body and improve the aesthetic appearance of the mammary glands.
Eliminate such shortcomings of large breasts as stretch marks and dilated veins.
Breast reduction surgery
The essence of reduction mammoplasty is to remove part of the breast and move the nipple to a higher position. Breast reduction surgery is usually performed under general anesthesia and lasts 1.5-3 hours. During the operation, the vertical and “anchor” method is predominantly used.
The surgeon removes excess fat, the tissue of the gland itself, the skin; The nipple and areola are moved to a new position. After the formation of a new contour of the breast (often during reduction mammoplasty, the size of the stretched areola is also reduced), the tissues are joined by imperceptible cosmetic sutures that are located around the areola and vertically down to the crease under the breast.
Breast lift (mammopexy, mastopexy), along with breast augmentation, is one of the most demanded plastic surgeries.
Breast lift allows to restore the natural form of the breast, when the mammary gland is lowered (to set the desired height of the breast and the location of the nipple and areola on the breast). Breast lift can be performed with or without the installation of an implant. Significant sagging of the breast with a simultaneous decrease in its volume are the main reasons why an operation is required.
