Techniques or Options

Three incision techniques are available for breast reduction surgery: a circular pattern around the areola, a keyhole-shaped pattern with an incision around the areola and vertically down to the breast crease, or an anchor-shaped incision that removes skin from around the areola.

With the anchor-shaped incision, the underlying tissue is removed and the nipple, which is still attached to the original blood and nerve supply, is repositioned. Sometimes for very large breasts, the nipple must be removed and transplanted to a higher position on the breast. The circular and keyhole incision are most commonly used; the anchor-shaped incision is used only when there is a significant amount of tissue to remove.

Scarless breast reduction is not possible; however, the scars are usually well-concealed beneath a bra or bathing suit and fade significantly over time. With all incision options, the plastic surgeon can reduce the areola size if the patient desires.

The Surgery

Once the incisions have been made and tissue and fat have been removed, the incisions will be closed with sutures layered beneath the skin and within the breast tissue to help support the new breast shape. Breast reduction surgery often automatically includes a breast lift, which lifts the breast to a more youthful position, and is sometimes referred to as a breast reduction and lift combined.

Recovery

Breast reduction recovery time varies depending on the patient and the amount of tissue that was removed. For the first 24-48 hours following the procedure, you will need someone to care for you. Your chest will be wrapped in bandages and you may be instructed to wear a compression garment and tend to surgical drains. Most should expect to spend at least two weeks away from work and other obligations. You should avoid strenuous exercise, lifting your arms above your head, lifting heavy objects and bending over for about four to six weeks. The initial results will be apparent after surgery, but the breasts may not settle into their final position and shape, and scars may not mature, for a period of six months to a year.
