What is a Reduction Mammaplasty ?

Breast reduction, or reduction mammaplasty, is a surgical procedure that removes excess breast tissue, fat, and skin to create a breast size more proportionate to your body. This surgery not only enhances your appearance but also alleviates physical discomfort caused by large breasts, such as back, neck, and shoulder pain.

Candidates for a breast reduction typically experience physical discomfort due to large breasts or have self-esteem concerns about their appearance. Ideal candidates are in good health, have realistic expectations, and seek to improve their quality of life by achieving a breast size that better suits their frame.

Breast Reduction Procedure

During a breast reduction surgery, your surgeon will make incisions to remove excess breast tissue, fat, and skin. The nipples and areolas may be repositioned for a natural look. The surgery usually takes two to four hours, and most patients can return home the same day.

Risks and Complications

Breast reduction surgery, like any procedure, comes with potential side effects and complications. While most are mild, some rare complications may require additional medical attention.

Common Post-Surgery Issues

Bruising and Swelling:
Many people experience bruising or swelling after the surgery

Loss of Sensation:
This surgery can impact breast sensation. The breasts contain many thin nerves important for the sense of touch.This usually resolves within one to two months.

Breastfeeding Challenges:
Some individuals may have difficulty breastfeeding after breast reduction surgery. If you plan to breastfeed, consider postponing the surgery.

Scarring:
Breast reduction surgery leaves scars on the lower halves of the breasts. These scars will fade over time but will never disappear completely.

General Risks and Complications

Surgical procedures carry risks like bleeding, infection, and blood clots. Breasts may appear asymmetrical, with visible scars varying in color. Nipple sensation might reduce, either temporarily or permanently. Fluid accumulation, or seroma, can occur under the skin. Skin infections like cellulitis may develop at incision sites. Anesthesia may cause breathing difficulties. Allergic reactions to medical materials are possible. Skin discoloration, either temporary or permanent, and bruising are common but usually fade.

Recovery from Breast Reduction

Recovering from breast reduction surgery is a phased process, with both early and late stages requiring attention and care.

Recovery Timeline:

Most patients need 10-14 days off work. While light activities can typically resume after 3-4 weeks, more strenuous exercises should wait until 4-6 weeks post-surgery.

Early Recovery Phase:
Immediately after surgery, moderate pain is expected, and some drainage from the incision sites is normal. It’s crucial to rest and avoid strenuous activities. Sleeping on your back is recommended for the first few weeks. By the third week, most bruising will have faded, and you can gradually increase your activity level.

Later Recovery Phase:
Listen to your body and take it slow, especially with exercises that involve jogging or jumping. Some numbness or intermittent shooting pains in the chest may occur but should diminish over time. Scars from surgery can take almost a year to fully fade and soften, so follow any scar treatment recommendations from your surgeon.

Final Thoughts:
Recovery from breast reduction surgery is a personal journey, and while the initial phase may require some adjustments, the long-term results are often highly rewarding. By following your surgeon’s advice and giving yourself the time needed to heal, you can achieve the best possible outcome.
