Breast reduction surgery steps
Techniques of breast reduction :
Anesthesia:
general
The incision
Breast reduction involves one of the following three incision techniques:
an anchoring incision
The anchoring incision is a traditional incision made around the areola, vertically along the chest, then horizontally along the crease of the chest.
Une incision verticale
The vertical incision is placed around the areolar border and vertically along the breast to reduce scarring.
an incision without scar.
A scar-free incision involves tiny incisions made at the breast or armpit fold, and excess fat is removed by liposuction.
Surgical reduction
Through incisions, the surgeon removes excess fat, tissue and skin from the lower chest.
If the patient has, for the most part, adipose tissue in her breasts, she may need liposuction to reduce breast size. This will result in minimal scarring, less trauma to the breast tissue and reduced risk of complications.
Repositioning of the breasts
After the incisions, the surgeon will remove excess tissue (including skin and fat), and the remaining breast tissue will be reshaped.
The nipple and areola are then repositioned in proportion to the new smaller size of the breasts.
In extreme cases with very large breasts, the use of a technique called free nipple transplant may be necessary.
In this type of procedure, the entire nipple and areola are removed and then transplanted to a higher position. If necessary, the size of the areola can also be reduced by surgically removing the skin around its perimeter.

After the surgery :
What to expect after a breast reduction ?
The recovery time varies from one person to another, but you will be able to get up and walk the same day of the surgery, even if you need someone to assist you (the nurses are there for )
Although you are allowed to take a shower a few days after the surgery, you will probably need help getting dressed because you will not be able to fully move your arms.
Most patients will be ready to drive and return to office work within a week, so pain relief will be needed in the first few weeks.
Your cosmetic surgeon will probably ask you to wait at least 3 to 4 weeks before resuming the exercise other than walking.
A special bra will be provided and you should wear it for a few weeks
From 1 to 14 days
You wear a special bra (which will be provided) night and day.
You can gradually resume normal activity, but do not do anything tiring.
From 2 to 4 weeks
Hematomas and scars will continue to disappear gradually.
The stitches begin to subside.
The appearance of the breasts continues to improve.
From 6 – 9 months
The scars start to fade and disappear. The final result begins to appear.
Some tips to respect:
- Avoid driving for one to two weeks. You will be able to wear a seatbelt if you place a small pillow on your chest.
- Not in sexual activity for at least a week.
- Avoid smoking for two weeks. Smoking delays healing and can cause an infection.
- Do not lift heavy objects for the first 6 weeks
- Do not engage in physical activities such as running or aerobics for six weeks.
- Never expose your scars to the sun for at least six months. You must absolutely avoid tanning.
- You can return to work in one to six weeks (the average time is three weeks) depending on your professional activity.
