Breast Reduction (Vertical Incision)
A reconstructive surgical procedure to remove excess skin and create smaller breasts with a single incision.
Treatment Analysis
Breast reduction is a popular procedure that involves the removal of excess skin and fatty tissue so as to lift droopy breasts and reduce their size.
The technique used in this procedure varies in comparison to the traditional method as it only makes use of a single, vertical incision on each breast so as to minimize the results of excessive scarring.
Patient Psychology
Women with large and droopy breasts experience an array of problems ranging from back and neck pains to emotional and self-image issues. In order to alleviate these pains, plastic surgeons recommend a breast reduction - especially for younger ages, where they also recommend the single incision solution so as to have less visible scarring.
