The surgery removes excess fat, glandular tissue, and skin from the breast in order to achieve a breast size and shape that is proportional to the rest of your body and to relieve the woman from the functional problems associated with large breasts.<\/p>\n
Symptoms of macromastia or gigantism include:<\/p>\n
Breasts disproportionate to the rest of the body Pain in the neck, shoulders, and waist Deep indentations in the skin of the shoulders from heavy or sagging breasts with downward-pointing nipples Skin irritation or fungal infections in the inframammary fold Asymmetrical breasts Difficulty breathing when lying down<\/p>\n
With this procedure, we can relieve you of these problems, lift your breasts, reduce the size of your nipples if necessary, and give your breasts a better shape so that they are in better proportion to the rest of your body. Physical exercise and daily activities become more comfortable and easier. Getting dressed becomes easier and large, heavy breasts no longer bother women.<\/p>\n
During the preoperative examination, we request a mammogram to rule out the possibility of suspicious lesions. Furthermore, the removed breast is always examined histologically for any possible malignancy. The procedure is usually performed under light general anesthesia and lasts 3-4 hours. Usually, the woman goes home on the same day. Older patients with health problems or very large breasts stay overnight at the clinic. There are various techniques for classic breast reduction, and each one results in a different scar placement. The technique recommended for each patient depends on the size of the existing breast, the ability to breastfeed for young women, the preservation of sensation in the scar, and the creation of a beautiful, natural-looking breast.<\/p>\n
In addition to classic breast reduction, Mr. Stamatiou offers liposuction without scarring as an alternative solution in the following cases:<\/p>\n
Breasts with a high fat-to-gland ratio No nipple ptosis Women who are not underweight Women in menopause Good skin quality without stretch marks Asymmetrical breasts Primary interest is in breast reduction rather than change in shape History of keloids and hypertrophic scars Shorter surgery with local anesthesia and sedation for women with functional problems due to breast weight who have a complicated medical history or are elderly<\/p>\n
Breast reduction with liposuction would create breasts of the same shape as before, lighter with noticeable lifting and without scars.<\/p>\n
After the surgery, all women feel relief in their breasts and find it easier to engage in physical exercise and their daily activities. The stitches are removed in 7-10 days, and wearing a bra after the first week is optional. Postoperative pain is minimal during the first few days and patients can return to work after 3 days.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","categories":[120,125],"tags":[],"services":[149],"class_list":["post-3255","our-services","type-our-services","status-publish","hentry","category-breast","category-classic-breast-reduction","services-breast"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
