What Breast Reduction Surgery May Do For You

We almost hear everyday about botox and liposuctions and silicon implants! But breast reduction surgeries are still in the covers. The actual name of this procedure is Breast Reduction Mammoplasty. In this surgical procedure, the excess breast fat, glandular tissue and skin are removed to achieve the proportionate breast size,

This surgery is done in cases when breasts limit the physical activity, experience of experience back, neck and shoulder pain caused by the weight of breasts, regular indentations from bra straps that support heavy, pendulous breasts, skin irritation beneath the breast crease, breasts hang low and have stretched skin, nipples rest below the breast crease when your breasts are unsupported and enlarged areolas caused by stretched skin.

This surgery is to alleviate the discomfort associated with overly large breasts. The procedure includes anchor shaped reduction. This goes around the areola and proceeds downward along the natural curve of the area beneath the breasts. After the removal of the excess glands, fat and skin tissues, nipples and areolas are moved into their new positions. The shaping and replacement of the skin takes place next, but usually only after excess fat tissue is removed from the armpits if necessary.

The breast reduction surgery is generally harmless and there can be some pain involved during the healing process but it would subside sooner if care is taken and diet and health advices are heeded.
