Breast structure is found in both men and women, and breast reduction surgery is performed on both men and women. Breast reduction operations are mostly performed for health reasons. The procedure closest to breast reduction surgery is breast lift. For people who want to decide on breast reduction surgery, there is a method that will help them make a quick decision in front of the mirror. The nipples and the breast fold line are the main points here. If the nipples are located above the breast fold line, there is no problem; However, if the nipples are at or below this line, it is possible to say that their breasts are sagging. This condition can be both painful and challenging in daily life.
Breast reduction surgery can be performed on both male and female patients. While it can be done for aesthetic reasons, it can also be done for purely medical reasons. Medical applications are mostly caused by situations such as sagging due to large breasts and not being symmetrical. In addition, in many people, slouching due to large breasts causes physical problems. Apart from posture disorders, skin problems such as under-breast rash and fungus may also occur due to breast size. Breast reduction surgeries are performed on people over the age of 20. Methods such as lollipop incision or T incision are used. Depending on this, the operation time may last between 2 and 4 hours.
Breast reduction surgery is performed not only on women but also on men. Gynecomastia may occur in men when the testosterone hormone is lower than the estrogen hormone for various reasons, and gynecomastia may also occur as a result of other disorders.
More than half of boys are born with large breast tissue due to the effect of estrogen in their mothers, but this disappears 2-3 weeks after birth. Gynecomastia is a common condition during adolescence.
Breast reduction surgery prices are often one of the most curious topics. The main reason for this is that it is both an aesthetic and medical operation. The most important point in determining the price of breast reduction surgery is to be examined. It is not right to give any price without inspection. Determining the price of the surgery is important in determining the price, including the size of the breast, the type of incision to be made, and even the choice of stitches to be applied. To get the most accurate pricing, you should get information from doctors and be examined.
Breast reduction is performed after the age of 20. The main reason for this is the completion of maturation and the settling of hormones. Immediately after this stage, incision types such as inverted t type and lollipop type should be decided. The type of incision forms the basis of the operation. The most basic point in determining this method is that many factors such as the size of the breast, its consistency, the position of the nipple, and the distance of the nipple from body parts such as the shoulder are important.
When using the lollipop incision type, a narrow incision is made around the nipple. In this way, excess tissue can be removed. The nipple can even be moved up with this procedure. With this method, care can be taken to avoid damaging the milk ducts. With the inverted T type method, an incision is made in the shape of an inverted letter T under the breast. The method proceeds in the same way as the lollipop type incision. In every surgical method, drains and dressings are made. Patients must stay in hospital for one day.
Breast reduction surgery can be a challenging process, both in decision making and implementation. However, the relief from both physical and skin discomfort that occurs after surgery is one of the most satisfying points for many patients. The type of operation is decided as a result of the examinations carried out with the selected doctor before the breast removal surgery . A lot of information, such as anesthesia, if any, is arranged in accordance with the selected operation and the necessary tests are performed. After these analyses, re-examinations are carried out in accordance with the operation to be performed. Immediately afterwards, the correct date and time are set. There is a 1-day observation period after the operation. The patient is expected to be dressed for a day.
It is essential that the person shares all information about his or her health condition before the operation. Regularly used medications and diagnosed diseases should be shared with the doctor. After the anesthesia checks, even if a seemingly simple problem such as a cold occurs before the operation, the anesthesiologist and doctor must be informed. Alcohol and cigarette use, dietary supplements, and blood-thinning medications should be stopped for the period recommended by experts before the operation.
After breast reduction surgery, the person is discharged on the same day or the next day. After the operation, it is important for the person to rest and use the medications prescribed by the doctor regularly. In addition, regular dressing is required. After 2 or 3 days of rest at home, the person can return to his normal life, provided that he does not use his arms too much.
It is important not to lift heavy items, drive vehicles, or do sports that require active use of the arms. Using the special bra prescribed by the doctor after breast reduction surgery is also very important for the results of the operation. It is important not to do heavy sports for approximately 2 months after the operation, not to strain the arms for the first 4 weeks, not to tire the chest muscles, and not to smoke during the recovery period.
After breast reduction surgery, the patient is expected to stay in the hospital for 1 day. Immediately afterwards, the necessary care should be applied to the stitches and creams specifically suitable for these procedures should be used. These special creams accelerate the healing process of the stitches quite quickly. Continuous checks are carried out for the first 2 weeks after the operation. After the 2nd week, if deemed appropriate, the stitches are removed. Thanks to the special bras used after the operation, the patient can perform activities at home. Special bras or sports bras must be used for 6 weeks after the operation. After 6 to 12 months, sensations such as stinging in the breasts may be experienced.
The dark colored area around the nipple is called areola. Just like the breasts, the areola area can be of different colors, sizes and shapes. Large or differently shaped areolas are extremely normal, but areola reduction operations are performed for people who are uncomfortable with this situation. The operation, in which one or both areolas can be reduced, is an extremely simple procedure.
It can also be performed in combination with operations such as breast lift, reduction or enlargement. This procedure can be performed for both women and men. It is extremely normal for women to experience changes in their areola areas after birth and breastfeeding. Areola reduction in women is not performed until growth has completely stopped.
Breast structure is found in both men and women, and breast reduction surgery is performed on both men and women.
