What is Breast Reduction Surgery?
Breast reduction surgery (reduction mammaplasty) is a procedure that reduces breast size in order to make them smaller, lighter, and firmer. Women with extremely large or sagging breasts can be both emotionally and physically uncomfortable. They may also suffer from back and neck pain, irritation under the breasts and soreness where bra straps cut into their shoulders. Our patients in Vadodara who undergo breast reduction surgery find that they are able to lead a healthier, more comfortable life, in addition to enjoying a beautiful, more proportionate appearance.

Techniques for surgery vary however, plastic surgeon Dr Sachin Shah at Yuva clinic tailors his techniques for his patients of breast reduction surgery in Vadodara. This ensures natural and beautiful results. The incision goes down and follows the natural curve under the breast. This is followed by removal of excess glandular tissue, fat, and skin. Next, the nipple and areola are repositioned to a higher position and held in place by stitches. Occasionally, liposuction alone can be used to reduce breast size. The best procedure can be determined during the initial consultation visit.
Anchor Pattern Breast Reduction: The anchor breast reduction, also called the traditional breast reduction, involves three incisions and is used for large breast size reduction with a large amount of sagging.
The Short-Scar Breast Reduction: Also known as the Lollipop Lift or the Vertical Scar breast reduction, this procedure is most preferred as it reduces the amount of noticeable scarring after reduction. This technique involves an incision around the areola and a limited vertical scar from the areola down to the fold under the breast which is easily hidden beneath a bra or bikini top.
Circle Lift: The circle lift, also called the circumareolar lift, or the donut lift, is a great lifting procedure for small breasts.
Recovery is generally quicker than patients expect. Rest and limited movement is advised in order to speed up the healing process and reduce the recovery time. Bandages are applied immediately following surgery to aid healing and minimize movement of the breasts. Once the bandages are removed, a specialized surgical bra will need to be worn for several weeks. Minor pain and discomfort is addressed with oral medication. Your recovery time may vary from 2 weeks to 4 weeks and patients can rest assured the results of your breast reduction in Vadodara with Dr. Sachin Shah will be most satisfying and long lasting.
