Reduction
Mammaplasty is an operation which removes
the excess fat and skin from the breasts, which
are reshaped and the nipples repositioned to form
newer smaller breasts. This breast reduction surgery
should result in more attractive breasts and reduce
many of the problems outlined above. There are
several different surgical designs to reshape
the breasts and are illustrated opposite. All
of them will involve a scar around the areola
of the breast. Each method will use different
scars and will have advantages and disadvantages
and your surgeon may select with your approval
the best breast reduction technique in your particular
case. Breast reduction surgery / mammaplasty may
be used to correct asymmetry of the breast, where
one breast is very much larger than the other
and where it is considered to be the least normal
of the two. |
