Breast reduction surgery is an alternative if you are worried about over-sized breasts.

Moderately voluminous breasts not only enhance the appearance of clothes but also emphasize femininity. As a result, many women strive to create a voluptuous body rather than a thin body. However, some with overly large breasts consider breast procedures  differently.  

In the case of women with megamastosis, the weight of the breast places a burden on the back, shoulders, and neck, causing constant pain.  Their inframammary fold part is also easy to get eczema, the skin disease caused by the sagging skin under the breasts. In addition, there are many cases where people feel emotional pain from the burdensome gazes around them. There are many situations where people with large breasts experience more discomfort than others.

In plastic surgery, breast procedures include augmentation and reduction procedures. Breast reduction surgery is a surgical procedure to reduce the size of the breasts by removing some of the breast tissue. The surgical method and how much tissue can be taken out is depending on the size of the breast and the amount of fat. This is because the final breast size must be made in consideration of the patient's plastic surgery, such as sagging condition, nipple position, and scars.

Breast reduction surgery is divided into different stage according to the surgical methods. First, the incision methods include areola incision, vertical incision, and oval-shaped incision. As it goes to the right, the largest reduction is possible, but the size of the scar is also proportional. To reduce a large amount with only a small incision, careful consultation with the medical staff should be preceded, such as understanding the patient's condition.

In terms of the incision methods, if the sagging is slight, the areola incision method, which cuts around the areola in a circle, is possible. The vertical incision method that makes a vertical incision around and below the areola is effective if there is lots of sagging. For more than that, the O-shaped incision method is recommended, which makes an incision around the areola and under the areola in a ‘ㅗ’ shape and leaves a relatively large scar.

Breast reduction surgery is a high-level operation that requires precision.  It is necessary to prioritize accurate diagnosis to get a safe and satisfactory result. Before making a decision, it's important to have a consultation with an experienced specialist rather than relying on cost or reviews vaguely.

WJ Wonjin Plastic Surgery Clinic has introduced 3D simulator software that allows direct comparison of before and after surgery.  This is a system that can check the post-operative appearance rather than a simple prediction. It allows patients to make more objective surgical decisions. In addition, it is equipped with an anesthesiologist's dedicated system and more than 40 types of the latest equipment and safety systems, enabling rapid response in emergencies and a total care system for quick recovery of customers.
