About Breast Reduction Treatment
Breast reduction, also known as reduction mammoplasty, is a surgical procedure designed to remove excess fat, glandular tissue, and skin from the breasts to achieve a size more proportionate to the body. It is often sought by women who experience physical discomfort such as neck pain, back pain, skin irritation, and posture issues due to overly large breasts. In addition to alleviating discomfort, breast reduction can also improve self-confidence and overall quality of life. Some patients also choose the procedure for aesthetic reasons, aiming for a more balanced and youthful breast appearance. Dr. Shraddha Deshpande provides one of the best treatment on Breast Reduction in South Mumbai.
Ideal candidates for breast reduction surgery are individuals in good health who have realistic expectations and are troubled by the physical or emotional burden caused by large breasts. While primarily performed on women, male breast reduction (for gynecomastia) is also a common procedure.
Treatment Types
Anchor or Inverted-T Reduction:
This is the most traditional and widely used technique, involving three incisions — around the areola, vertically down to the breast crease, and horizontally along the breast crease. It is ideal for women with very large breasts and significant sagging.
Vertical or Lollipop Reduction:
This method involves two incisions — around the areola and a vertical line down to the breast crease. It is suitable for moderate breast reductions with less skin removal and leaves fewer scars.
Liposuction-only Breast Reduction:
In cases where excess breast volume is primarily due to fatty tissue and there is good skin elasticity, liposuction can be used to reduce breast size with minimal scarring and a shorter recovery period. We provide excellent treatment on Breast Reduction in South Mumbai.
Free Nipple Graft:
For extremely large breasts where blood supply to the nipple may be compromised during surgery, the nipple may be removed and grafted back in a higher position.
