Breast Reduction Surgery Method

Learn about AB Plastic Surgery's Breast Reduction Surgery Method.

The reduction method for breast reduction surgery is determined based on the size of the breast and the desired outcome.
While the specific technique may vary, the basic surgical incision methods used in breast reduction are similar to those used in breast augmentation.

Areola Incision

Scarring is limited to the area around the areola, resulting in minimal scarring and a quick recovery. However, it is important to note that the areola incision technique requires the circumference of the areola to exceed 4 cm. In cases of severe megamastosis, where the breasts are excessively large, this technique may not be suitable due to the extensive tissue removal required.

Vertical Incision

The vertical incision method is a surgical technique that combines the advantages and addresses the disadvantages of the existing "T" shape incision method and areola incision method. It can be applied to breasts of various sizes, ranging from relatively large to small, without compromising nipple sensation or breastfeeding capability.

T Shape Incision

This surgical method involves making an incision in a specific shape from the nipple to the sub-breast fold. The surgery's outcomes are easy to predict and have proven effective, even in cases of severe megamastosis. However, it is important to note that the scar resulting from the surgery is relatively long.
