Creating a balanced breast line suited to
the proportions of your body by reducing excessively large breasts.

Prologue

Breast reduction is a surgical procedure that removes part of the enlarged breast tissue
to create beautifully shaped breasts of an appropriate size. Its purpose is to reduce breast size,
lift sagging breasts into a perkier shape, and maintain physiological functions
such as breastfeeding and nipple sensation even after reduction.

Surgical methods for breast reduction vary depending on breast size and shape,
the position of the areola, and the degree of breast sagging. Any surgery that reduces breast size
cannot make scars completely invisible, so a certain amount of scarring must be accepted.

Therefore, it is best to choose the most effective method that can effectively
and beautifully reduce the breasts while minimizing these scars.

Self-Diagnosis

How do you check if it is macromastia (breast hypertrophy)?
Breast hypertrophy can be classified based on the distance between the upper and lower breast,
and the surgical approach may also vary accordingly.

How?

Breast Reduction

How is the surgery performed?

Through consultation, we consider an individual's unique breast characteristics and body shape to establish a tailored surgical plan.
The surgical method varies depending on breast size, shape, areola position, degree of sagging, etc.,
and a method is selected that can reduce the breasts effectively and aesthetically.

Periareolar Incision Method

The periareolar incision method involves making an incision only around the perimeter of the nipple's areola, working on a principle similar to taking contents out of a pouch and then tightening the opening again.
Since the scar is confined only around the areola, it leaves minimal scarring, maintains the natural shape and function of the breast,
involves a relatively simple procedure, and enables quick recovery with minimal bleeding.

  4. Periareolar Incision Method Step 8 — Final breast shape after suturing

Vertical Incision Method

As a method intermediate between the periareolar incision and the anchor ('inverted-T') incision, it leaves fewer scars than the anchor incision and can be performed for moderate or greater breast reductions;
however, because the shape immediately after surgery differs significantly from the final result, it is a high-difficulty surgery requiring experienced judgment.

  4. Vertical Incision Method Step 8 — Final breast shape after suturing

Inverted-T (Wise Pattern) Incision Method

A suitable method when both breast hypertrophy and sagging are severe, this surgical technique involves an incision that includes the periareolar incision and extends downward in an omega shape.
It has the advantage of creating a good shape immediately after surgery with relatively uniform results, but has the drawback of having the most extensive scarring.
