Breast Reduction Treatment

What Is Breast Reduction Treatment In Pune?

Breast reduction or reduction mammoplasty is another reconstructive cosmetic procedure for reducing the volume and contour of women’s breasts. It is performed by removing the excess fat, glandular tissues, and skin accumulated in and around disproportionately large breasts, a condition which is also known as macromastia.
This surgery is performed for women who:
  • Experience back pain and discomfort due to the heaviness of their breasts
  • Have trouble performing essential routine activities like sleeping due to the over-protrusion of their breasts
  • Have difficulty breathing properly due to the weight their breasts add to their chest
  • Are emotionally and mentally distressed due to the excessively disoriented appearance of their breasts
Apart from these reasons, women who don’t necessarily have overgrown breasts but wish to align their breast and hip contours to enhance their overall appearance can also opt for this surgery.
  • To ensure your fitness before the surgery, you’ll first undergo a series of blood tests and medical evaluations.
  • You should take a baseline mammogram of your breasts as a reference to check any changes in your breast tissues in the future.
  • Avoid smoking, anti-inflammatory drugs, and recreational drugs altogether.
  • As it will be a daycare surgery, ask a friend or a family member to drive you to and from the clinic.

The breast reduction procedure is performed in the following steps:

Step 1 – Introducing Anaesthesia:

To relax your body during the surgery, your surgeon will put you under general anesthesia or an intravenous sedative.

Step 2 – Making The Incisions:

Depending on the region from where tissues are to be removed, the surgeon may choose to make any one of the following types of incisions:

  • Circular incision – which is made around the areola of the nipple to access the tissues underneath it. 
  • Keyhole Incision – which is made around the areola, moving vertically down towards the breast crease.
  • Anchor-shaped Incision – which is made around the areola, moving vertically and horizontally around the breast to expose almost the entire bottom half of the breast.

The nipple stays tethered to its natural nerves and blood vessels. 

Step 3 – Tissue Removal And Repositioning:

The excess fat and tissues are typically removed through liposuction in conjunction with excision techniques to resize the skin and the nipple.

However, depending on the composition of your breast and the tissues to be removed, your surgeon may modify the techniques.

Ultimately, the surgeon removes the necessary amount of fat tissues from both the breasts, and the skin is reshaped and incised to hold the new smaller breasts firmly.

In some cases, the areola and the nipple will also be resized and positioned higher to suit the new shape of the breasts.

Step 4 – Closing The Incisions:

To support the new shape of the breasts, sutures are layered from deep within the breast tissues and externally covered with skin adhesives and surgical tapes.

  • A thin outlet tube may be placed through the breasts to drain out fluids.
  • For the next four weeks, you’ll have to avoid any strenuous activities and modify your routine activities to reduce pressure on the chest. Consult Dr Sanghvi for breast reduction treatment in Pune.
Breast Lift
  • Women who drastically lose significant weight or who breastfeed for a prolonged period after pregnancy usually develop saggy and asymmetrical breasts.
  • Breast lift or ‘mastopexy’ is a procedure that fixes such saggy breasts by modifying the size, contour, and
  • elevation of the breasts.
  • This procedure involves removing excess fat, glandular tissues, overstretched suspensory ligaments, skin, and areola to reposition the nipple higher around the center of the breasts.
Accessory Breast Tissue Removal
  • Accessory breasts are the fat and glands that protrude and grow out in the axillary area of the armpit.
  • This side growth of breasts is usually caused due to the hormonal changes during pregnancy and the lactation process. They can often cause menstrual discomfort, anxiety, pain, and restrictions of arm movement.
  • Accessory breast growth can be safely reduced with liposuction surgery to achieve a slim and linear skin contour.
Correction Of Unequal Breasts
  • Some women innately develop asymmetrical or uneven breasts, which cause serious issues in clothing and self-confidence.
  • Women who undergo breast surgeries due to breast cancer or accidental breast injuries also suffer from the same issue after their surgery.
  • This problem can be dealt with with a combination of breast augmentation, reduction, and lift surgeries performed simultaneously or in sessions to achieve perfectly symmetrical breasts. Consult Dr Sanghvi for breast reduction treatment in Pune.
