Breast Reduction Surgery In Dubai

Many women with oversized breasts often face physical and emotional challenges. Large breasts cause chronic back pain, neck pain, and shoulder pain. Moreover, women also face difficulty in finding well-fitting clothes. To resolve this issue, they can undergo breast reduction surgery. This procedure provides relief from physical discomfort associated with large breasts and improves posture.

Breast reduction surgery also known as reduction mammaplasty is a common procedure used to treat large breasts. This cosmetic procedure helps women achieve a more manageable breast size that suits their body frame. Many women who undergo this procedure find it easy to do different activities including exercises. Breast reduction surgery provides a boost in self-esteem and makes women feel empowered.

A breast reduction surgery helps decrease the volume of oversized breasts by removing the extra fat and tissues. The nipple and areola are also repositioned during this procedure.

Reasons to undergo breast reduction surgery

Female breasts undergo countless changes due to hormonal fluctuations during pregnancy, breastfeeding, and weight gain and loss. Some of these changes can lead to oversized breasts. Breast reduction surgery can be an ideal choice for those women to restore their figure’s symmetry.

In general, you may consider breast reduction surgery if your large breasts cause:

• Physical discomfort.
• Chronic pain in the neck, back, and shoulder.
• Rash and skin irritations under the breast.
• Asymmetry of your figure.
• Difficulty participating in exercises and other related activities.
• Lack of self-confidence.
• Difficulty finding well-fitted clothes and bras.

Breast reduction treatment

How to get ready for the treatment?

First of all, you must be in good health to qualify for this surgery. Secondly, you must have common essentials ready at your house to help speedy recovery. These include:

• Clean light clothes, towels, and gauze.
• Ice pack.
• Comfortable loose shirts.
• Special ointments or lotions are as directed by the surgeon.

You can discuss all the preparation steps with your surgeon during the initial consultation.

What happens during the breast reduction surgery?

Breast reduction surgery is a 2-5-hour cosmetic procedure. The exact length of the procedure will be based on your condition, breast shape, and the amount of skin and tissues to be removed.

Breast reduction surgery is usually performed under general anesthesia. However, your surgeon will have the final say on which anesthetic option will suit you best.

The steps involved in breast reduction surgery are as under:

1. First of all, the surgeon makes a small incision around the nipple. Then, a vertical incision is made below the nipple, extending from the edge of the areola to the natural breast fold. Another incision is made along the crease of the breast. This entire incision pattern resembles the shape of an anchor.
2. If the patient has massive breasts, the nipple may be removed and reattached at a higher position. Of course, this is done only when necessary. The nipple is attached to its blood and nerve supply.
3. Extra breast fat, tissues, and skin are then removed to decrease the volume of the breast. The surgeon will likely use liposuction to remove fat.
4. After removing the excess fat and tissue, the surgeon stitches all the layers that have been incised. The nipple and areola are repositioned accordingly.

What to expect after the surgery?

After the surgery, your specialist will give you instructions on how to take care of the stitches. You will need to rest for 2 to 3 weeks to allow the incisions to heal. You can resume most of your daily activities and light exercises after that. However, significant recovery can take up to 6 weeks. Until then, avoid strenuous physical activities.

Following are the post-care tips after the surgery:

You will experience tiredness and a little breast pain or soreness while recovering. For the first few days, your doctor will prescribe you painkillers and advise you to avoid any kind of heavy physical activity. Be sure to follow these instructions.

You might go through emotional distress following the surgery. This is mainly due to the psychological and physiological stress caused by surgery and is a normal occurrence. Notify your doctor about all these concerns, and they will help you deal with them.

You will need to visit the doctor after a week or two to remove the stitches and recovery checkup.

Breast reduction surgery results in an instant decrease in the bust volume. The first glimpse of the treatment results occurs in 4-7 days. These results continue to settle until you get the final results, which usually occur in a few months.
