Breast reduction

The main reasons for breast reduction surgery include physical discomforts such as pain in the back, neck and shoulders, irritation of the skin under the breasts, difficulty in physical activities, as well as emotional discomfort due to inconsistencies between the size of the chest and the rest of the body.

Recovery lasts about 2 to 6 weeks, during which patients must avoid strenuous activities and lifting heavy objects. In the initial days, pain and swelling may be present, but can usually be controlled with medication prescribed by a doctor.

Yes, scars are inevitable, but they are placed in places that are less noticeable, usually around the areola (nipple), vertically down the breast and under the breast (in the shape of an inverted T). The scars will fade over time, but they won't disappear completely.

After breast reduction, the results are usually long-term, but it should be remembered that pregnancy, breastfeeding or weight changes can affect the shape and size of the breasts.

In most cases, women can breastfeed after breast reduction surgery. However, the ability to breastfeed depends on how much tissue is removed and whether the milk ducts are affected. The doctor will explain all aspects of this possibility to you before the operation.

The price includes: surgery, all laboratory analyzes and one night stay in the clinic. There are no additional or hidden costs.

The operation is usually performed under general anesthesia, which means that you will be completely asleep during the procedure. In some cases, it is possible to use local anesthesia in combination with sedation, but general anesthesia is the most common.

The operation usually lasts between 2 and 4 hours, depending on the complexity of the procedure and the amount of tissue to be removed.

It is recommended to refrain from strenuous physical activities and sports for at least 4-6 weeks after surgery. Once the wounds have completely healed, you can return to normal activities, but it is advisable to do so gradually.

Yes, breast reduction surgery is often combined with other aesthetic procedures, such as a breast lift (mastopexy) or liposuction, to achieve a more contoured and proportional appearance. The doctor will guide you in the possibilities of combining procedures, taking into account your goals and health.

There is no strict age limit for this operation, but it is usually recommended that women be over 18 years old, when their breasts are already fully developed. Also, women who plan to become pregnant in the future should consider the impact that pregnancy may have on the results of surgery.

Preparation includes medical examinations, such as blood tests and mammograms, as well as talking to your doctor about your goals and expectations. Also, it is recommended that you stop smoking and taking certain medications that can increase the risk of complications.

Patients are operated on by one of our surgeons who have several thousand breast operations. Most of our surgeons are professors at faculties. We can only tell you the exact name and surname of the surgeon who would operate on you once the appointment has been agreed upon and booked. 

Yes, breast reduction surgery can improve body proportions, as excess weight is removed from the breasts, which can make your figure appear more harmonious. Many women notice an improvement in their overall appearance, with better balanced proportions.

Breast reduction can also be done in overweight women, but it is recommended that the weight stabilizes before surgery. Losing weight before surgery can help achieve longer-term and better results. It is important that the doctor evaluates your health situation and determines whether the operation is safe at that time.

In order for the shape of the breast to remain stable, it is important to follow the postoperative instructions, such as wearing a compression bra, avoiding strenuous physical activities in the initial months, and following the doctor's recommendations. Also, possible changes in weight or pregnancy can affect the shape of the breasts, so it is important to take care of your health.

After surgery, it is recommended to wear a special compression bra for 6 to 8 weeks to ensure proper recovery and support. After this period, you can go back to wearing regular bras, but you should avoid models that press too much on your breasts, especially with underwire.

No, breast reduction surgery is not performed only for aesthetic reasons. Although many women want to improve the appearance of their breasts, the most common reason for surgery is physical problems such as pain in the back, neck, shoulders, skin irritation under the breasts, and difficulty with physical activities.

Most women who have had breast reduction surgery can breastfeed, but this depends on the type of procedure and how much tissue is removed. If the operation involved milk ducts or nerve endings, there is a possibility that breastfeeding will be difficult or impossible. Before the operation, the doctor will inform you about possible consequences for breastfeeding.
