What is Breast Lift and Reduction Surgery?

Both the breast lift and reduction change the shape of the breast, and they require removing extra skin and breast tissue. The main difference is that the breast lift does not change breast size, but the breast reduction reduces the size and weight of the breasts.

Sagging breasts in women are common as a result of weight loss or breastfeeding, and giant breasts are especially prone to sagging. Breasts that are large and saggy not only look unattractive, but they also cause pain in the shoulders and back by putting too much strain on the spine and waist.

It is a surgical procedure that restores excessively large and sagging breasts to normal and attractive proportions while leaving minimal scarring and preserving as much breast function as possible.

We hope to improve the patient's aesthetics, as well as their health and confidence, through breast reduction and lifting.

Incision Method for Breast Reduction and Lifting Surgery

Incision around the areola

This is a surgical procedure in which an incision around the areola is made and a portion of the breast tissue is removed. It has less scarring and a faster recovery rate when compared to other surgical methods. This method is recommended when there is less than 300g of breast volume to be excised and 1-3 cm of nipples to be raised.

After making an incision around the areola, the epidermal layer is removed.

The nipple is pulled up to the desired position and the sagging skin is removed along the areola.

The sagging skin and mammary gland tissue is excised.

The areola is sutured.

Vertical incision (Lollipop breast reduction)

This is a surgical procedure in which the areola is incised and a vertical incision 4 to 5 cm downward is made. It is recommended when breasts weigh less than 300g. It is a popular surgical procedure because it can correct a significant amount of sagging.

After making an incision around the areola, the epidermal layer is removed.

The sagging skin around the areola is removed.

After excision and removal, sagging mammary tissue, skin tissue, etc are corrected.

While adjusting the size of the areola, the surgical site is sutured.

Inverted-T Breast lift

An inverted T-shaped incision incision is made around the nipple with the second incision running vertically down from the areola and another along the crease of the breast for a distinctive T-shape pattern.

It is advised when the volume of breast to be removed exceeds 300g or when the nipples need to be raised by more than 5cm due to severe sagging. It is an effective surgical method when the breast is extremely large and the amount of sagging is severe because it improves the degree of sagging while also adjusting the position of the nipple.

After making an incision around the areola and the folds under the breast, only the epidermis layer is removed.

The sagging skin around the areola is removed.

After excision and removal, sagging mammary tissue, skin tissue, etc are corrected.

While adjusting the size of the areola, the surgical site is sutured.

What Distinguishes Braun's Surgical Technique From Other Types of Breast Surgeries?

Braun's breast reduction and lifting surgeries are tailored to the patient's specific needs. Furthermore, research is constantly being conducted with a focus on correcting large and sagging breasts.

The correction of sagging and breast hypertrophy is more difficult than general breast augmentation surgery. More than just reducing the size of your breasts, it is critical to balance them by taking into account the proportions with your upper body.

Braun’s breast reduction and augmentation reduces the size of the breast while also considering the patient's health by determining the appropriate size for the body proportion.

FAQ

Do I need to wear a surgical drain after breast augmentation?

- Surgical drains are not used unless there is a high risk of bleeding.The surgical drain, on the other hand, allows blood to escape in the event of unexpected and continuous bleeding, and it can be considered a safety device that prevents capsular contracture and lowers the likelihood of revision surgery.The blood bag may or may not be worn depending on the patient's surgical progress and condition, such as the amount of bleeding.

When can I depart Korea?

-Departure and boarding are possible from the 2nd day after surgery after checking for bleeding and wounds. You can choose the length of your stay by keeping in mind that all treatments and removal of stitches will take between 10 and 14 days.

Are there any additional precautions to take in comparison to standard breast augmentation surgery?

-To varying degrees, most breast reduction surgeries can interfere with breastfeeding.
As a result, you must receive breastfeeding counseling prior to surgery and ensure that the reduction surgery is performed in a way that does not harm the mammary gland.It can also cause varying degrees of temporary papillary numbness.However, many of these cases recover much of their sensory function within six months to a year, so it is not cause for concern.Following the removal of excess breast tissue, the size of the left and right breasts may differ, as may the position of the nipples.It is recommended that the judgment of asymmetry be made at least 6 months after surgery, and that any judgment made before that time may be distorted due to swelling.Furthermore, because the final breast size typically decreases by 20-30% compared to the size immediately following surgery, it is not advisable to consider revision surgery in advance because the size of the breast gradually changes due to swelling.

How long does the pain last?

-The pain varies from patient to patient and method of surgery, but it is common for the pain to last for 1-2 days and to gradually diminish over time.

When can I resume my daily activities?

-Daily activities can be resumed 2 days after the surgery.
