Quote of Dr. Handan Şimşek Turan
Breast reduction, also known as reduction mammoplasty, is a surgical procedure designed to reduce the size of the breasts. This can be done to alleviate physical discomfort or to achieve a more balanced body proportion.
Procedure:
- Consultation: The process typically starts with a consultation with a plastic surgeon to discuss goals, expectations, and whether you are a good candidate for the surgery.
- Surgical Technique: During the procedure, the surgeon removes excess breast tissue, fat, and skin to achieve the desired size. Techniques vary depending on individual needs and the surgeon’s approach.
- Recovery: Post-surgery, there’s usually a recovery period during which you may need to wear a supportive bra and avoid strenuous activities. Full recovery can take several weeks.

Women grappling with complications linked to large breasts often consider breast reduction. These complications include: - Back and neck pain - Poor posture - Chronic rash or skin irritation beneath the breast fold - Shoulder pain - Difficulty in finding suitable clothes or bras - Nerve pain - Limitations in physical activity and participation in certain activities
Conducted under general anesthesia, breast reduction surgery spans approximately three to four hours. This comprehensive process involves the removal of excess fat, glandular tissue, and skin. Two methods are employed for fat removal: the excision technique and liposuction. Liposuction may be employed independently if excess skin is not a factor. However, in most cases, a combination of surgery and liposuction is planned. As with any cosmetic surgery, breast reduction procedures are individualized, tailored to factors such as the patient's condition, breast composition, and the desired degree of reduction.
Recovery spans two to six weeks, necessitating initial rest, with the first week or two often requiring time off from work and responsibilities. Incisions remain concealed beneath bandages, and a post-operative bra is provided. Managing post-surgical pain, engaging in gentle activities like walking during the first week, and avoiding heavy lifting are key components of early post-op care. After two weeks, a gradual return to normal activities begins, with low-impact exercise considered around the end of the first month. Benefits, such as diminished neck and shoulder pain, become noticeable, showcasing the positive effects of the procedure.
Results are enduring as removed tissue does not regenerate. Aging, may impact long-term results, potentially leading to sagging over time.
Discussing pregnancy plans with the surgeon is crucial. Breast reduction surgery can potentially impact breastfeeding. It may be advisable to delay the procedure until after having children.
