Breasts are undoubtedly one of the most important elements of female beauty and sexual identity. If a woman’s breasts are larger than what is considered normal, or if the size of her breasts prevents a proportionate appearance with the rest of her body, it can cause a number of problems. Since these problems are not only aesthetic concerns but also lead to physical issues, breast reduction surgery can be considered a necessity not only for aesthetic purposes but also for health reasons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Breast reduction aims to reshape the breast tissue to be in harmony with the body contours. This surgical procedure, which provides effective and lasting results, eliminates physical problems caused by large breasts, improving women’s quality of life. Furthermore, having breasts of the desired size and more aesthetic appearance increases women’s self-confidence, contributing to their psychological well-being. Breast reduction surgeries can be combined with breast lift surgeries if deemed necessary on a case-by-case basis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This procedure is performed to alleviate the physical and psychological problems women experience due to the size of their breasts. Women who may face difficulties in social life due to their appearance may experience a lack of self-confidence. Breast size, which creates various complaints ranging from clothing choices to limitations in activities, can be resolved by experienced surgeons using advanced medical techniques. In addition to all these complaints, women with large breasts may experience undesirable situations such as rashes, fungal infections, or other infections under the breasts, or neck and back pain, which reduce their quality of life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Breast reduction surgery, a reconstructive surgical procedure, can be performed on women who experience back and neck pain due to the size of their breasts, and who sometimes even suffer from hunching. Women who are dissatisfied with the size of their breasts must be in good enough general health to undergo breast reduction surgery. While breast reduction is generally performed after breast development is complete, i.e., after the age of 18, it can be performed before the age of 18 with the consent of the doctor and family if the patient is experiencing very serious physical problems. During the planning process, the patient’s general health status and any medications they are regularly taking must be thoroughly investigated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Many women planning breast reduction surgery worry about whether they will be able to retain their breastfeeding function after the operation. There is a risk of impaired breastfeeding function when some of the milk glands are removed during surgery. The crucial factor here is the surgical technique used. Therefore, in women who have not yet given birth or who plan a new pregnancy after surgery, less breast tissue is reduced and the milk glands are preserved. A breast reduction surgery performed using the correct technique will not result in a loss of breastfeeding function.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
