Breast reduction surgery is an excellent option for women who, due to various factors, want to have smaller breasts. This surgical procedure can be performed without the need for implants and the results obtained are very satisfying.

So, what is breast reduction surgery all about?

The main objective of this surgery is to remove excess fat from the breasts. It can also involve readjusting the position of the nipples and areolas (the skin around the nipples) to improve the appearance of the breasts. By reshaping the breasts and removing glandular tissue and skin, greater harmony and proportion can be achieved according to the patient's desires. Since breast implants are not necessary for this procedure, the breasts can look more natural and there is no risk of complications related to implants.

Ideal candidates for breast reduction surgery include women with ptosis (drooping) due to the large size and weight of their breasts, those who want to improve their self-esteem and reduce the size of their breasts for aesthetic reasons, and women experiencing physical discomfort due to the weight of their breasts, such as back pain, neck pain, and irritation in the lower breast area. In some cases, breast reduction surgery is also recommended for women who have difficulty finding bras and clothing that fit comfortably.

The benefits of this surgery are numerous.

Since no implants are used, the results are completely natural-looking. Patients can enjoy physical activities they may not have been able to do before due to the weight of their breasts and can find bras that fit comfortably. In addition, physical discomfort such as back and neck pain will gradually disappear as the breast size is reduced. However, it's important to note that good results depend on proper post-operative care.

After the surgery, patients may experience some swelling, sensitivity, and fatigue, but these symptoms will gradually fade away if the surgeon's instructions are followed and proper post-operative care is taken.
