Preparation:

Before breast reduction, you will probably be asked to:

Get a breast mammogram.
Complete various lab tests.
Stop smoking and other drugs.
Avoid taking blood thinners and anti-inflammatory medications.

During Surgery:

Breast Reduction in Islamabad is performed while patients are deep asleep using general or local anesthesia. It takes about 2-3 hours to complete, during which you can expect the following.

Anesthesia: The surgery begins with anesthesia (general or local), which is given by the doctor to ensure a pain-free experience.
Incisions: Incisions are made along the natural folds of the breast. The area in which the new nipple will be inserted is also determined through an incision in the keyhole. (Please note: the location of the cut may differ depending on the technique used, for example, vertical or anchor)
Altering tissues: The excess skin is then removed from the lower breast. The areola, nipples, and underlying breast tissue are lifted and adjusted to a higher position.
Closing the incisions: In this step, the nipple is moved, and the incisions are closed with sutures.

Breast reduction is also possible with liposuction. The choice of the best procedure depends on your opinion or the decision of the surgeon.

THE DIFFERENCES

After Surgery:

Most patients require a 1-2 night hospital stay.
The chest is wrapped and bandaged with bulky gauze. At times surgical bras are used.
Later one week, the dressing is replaced by a soft bra which must be worn for several weeks.
Post-redness, swelling, and discoloration is controlled by medication, takes a day or two to subside.
Breast and nipple sensitivity may be temporarily lost and will improve over time.
Stitches will be removed within 2 weeks after surgery.

Recovery:

This phase is difficult but manageable. It will take about 6 weeks before you fully recover from breast reduction surgery. Based on your healing ability and consistency towards follow-up care, there is a chance you may heal soon.

Possible Risks:

Breast reductions are complicated but safe with few risks like:

Bleeding: Light bleeding is rarely possible in the first 24 hours after surgery.
Breastfeeding: Mothers will not be able to breastfeed the same way they used to because some milk ducts are cut, and milk supply is often reduced.
Scarring: Scars may appear depending on the technique and artistic skill of the surgeon.
Loss of sense: Around 8% of women get sensitivity loss with their nipples.

The main benefit of breast reduction surgery is the physical difference, but there is a big emotional change that most of us don’t talk about, which is the most obvious.
