LIPOSUCTION BREAST REDUCTION Serving Toronto, Mississauga, Scarborough and Oakville
Breast reduction is usually performed to relieve
symptoms of shoulder and neck pain. Women with a D plus breast size are
often uncomfortable because of the excess weight of their breasts. Traditional
breast reduction techniques relieve these symptoms by using various incision
patterns to allow direct removal of excess breast tissue. The results
are very successful in relieving symptoms, but scars, possible loss of
feeling and healing problems can occur.
Liposuction breast reduction can reduce the weight of heavy breasts by
removing the fatty component of the breast tissue. The procedure is performed
under a general anesthetic using a single 1 cm. incision on each side!
Scarring is almost zero and there is no risk of nerve damage causing numbness
because no breast tissue is cut during the procedure.
Following surgery, I advise my patients to wear a snug supportive bra
to minimize swelling and help the skin to shrink. Most patients are back
to normal daily activities within a week. Swelling gradually resolves.
The final breast shape and size takes 6 to 8 weeks to stabilize. |
