Breast reduction is an ideal procedure for women who want to minimize the discomfort of large breasts. The breast reduction procedure removes excess breast fat, glandular tissues, and excess skin tissues to reduce your cup size, making it more manageable and proportional to your overall body size.
However, women considering a breast reduction often have questions about the procedure, such as “does a breast reduction include a lift?” This article answers that question, describes the entire breast reduction procedure, and helps you determine if you need a reduction.
First things first — yes, a breast reduction includes a lift
A breast reduction gives you the benefits of a breast lift as well. After the surgeon removes the excess fat tissues and skin from your breasts, they move the nipples to a central location, giving your breasts an instant lift. As such, getting a breast reduction will give you smaller, perkier, and more upright breasts.
Breast reduction surgery — what you can expect
The breast reduction surgery starts with a detailed personal consultation with your surgeon. The plastic surgeon will discuss why you want a reduction, your cosmetic goals, and curate the treatment plan according. The breast reduction surgery will start with local anesthesia to numb sensation in your breasts.
You’ll be awake for the entire procedure, but you won’t feel anything. The surgeon will make various incisions around the areola and the creases of the breasts. The incisions will be made along the natural folds and lines of your skin, making them practically invisible. The incisions will be an inverted T shape.
Once the incisions are made, the surgeon will remove the unwanted breast tissues. The number of breast tissues they remove will depend on your aesthetic goals. If necessary, the surgeon will also reduce the areola size, making them proportionate to your reduced breast size. The nipples will then be repositioned to a central location, giving you a lift.
After the surgery, you can proceed with the recovery and enjoy your smaller, perkier, and more manageable breasts.
