"Big breasts" do not always mean a reason for joy. On the contrary! Breastfeeding, age or simply weight make it uncomfortable. More and more women are turning to shrinking. The plastic surgeon performs this operation by removing certain portions of the mammary gland, skin and related fat, bringing the breast to a size proportional to the rest of the body. It is basically the reverse operation of breast augmentation. At the same time, the areolas can be reduced and repositioned, considering that in most cases they end up being positioned downwards, unsightly. Breast reduction surgery takes an average of 3 hours, but can take up to 5 hours, depending on how many corrections are needed.

The operation is performed under general anesthesia. The reduction procedure involves the excision of larger or smaller portions of the mammary gland, subareolar skin tissue and related fat.

Aesthetics are improved and women gain more freedom in movement.

Health is also improved: less pressure on the spine, neck and shoulders, improved skin health in the breast area.
