Breast Reduction Surgery: Personalized Care at formedi Turkey

What is Breast Reduction?

Breast reduction surgery, also known as reduction mammaplasty, is a procedure aimed at reducing the size and weight of large breasts. By removing excess breast tissue, fat, and skin, our plastic surgeons can create a breast size in proportion with your body, alleviating discomfort associated with overly large breasts.

How Does the Breast Reduction Surgery Work?

The surgery involves making incisions on your breasts through which excess tissue and skin are removed. The remaining breast tissue is then reshaped, and the nipples may be repositioned to a more natural height. Our surgeons at formedi clinic use the latest surgical techniques to ensure minimal scarring and optimal aesthetic outcomes.

Breast Reduction Surgery Techniques

At formedi, we employ various surgical techniques tailored to meet your individual needs and preferences, including:

Vertical (Lollipop) Incision: Ideal for moderate reductions, involving incisions around the areola and vertically down to the breast crease.

Inverted T (Anchor) Incision: Recommended for significant reductions, this technique involves an additional horizontal incision along the breast crease for more extensive tissue removal.

Our plastic surgeons will discuss the most suitable approach for you, considering your anatomy, goals, and the amount of reduction desired.
