I have poor body posture- Will Breast Reduction Surgery help me?
Yes! Having large breasts means carrying extra weight on the chest. Undergoing Breast reduction, surgery medically referred to as reduction mammoplasty, is a surgical procedure to reduce the size and weight of the breasts. It involves the excision of extra breast tissues and skin and the removal of surplus breast fat by liposuction technique. This surgery can be chosen for both cosmetic and medical purposes.
As per Dr. Mrinalini Sharma plastic surgeon at Aestiva Clinic, heavy breasts can lead to compromised body posture. That’s because of overcompensating neck, back, and shoulder pain associated with large breasts. Talking about the Breast Reduction cost in Delhi, this procedure is individualised and its cost will vary from patient to patient. Hence, talking with a doctor is a must to determine the surgery cost.
A breast reduction surgery can help women achieve good body posture in several ways, including:
- Shoulder discomfort- As the weight of large breasts pulls down on women, they can face immense strain and pain in their shoulders. With breast reduction surgery, this heavy weight can be alleviated from the breasts and the shoulders can remain in proper position.
- Neck and back pain- When there are oversized breasts, the muscles of the back and neck try to compensate to pick up the slack. This causes tremendous pain. With breast reduction surgery, the neck and back muscles no longer get strained and there is immediate pain relief.
- Hunching- This is another common problem associated with large breasts. It can occur due to the heaviness of the breasts in the body’s front and the body trying to alleviate some of the load on the chest. Also, it can be an outcome of trying to hide large breasts so that others do not catch sight of them. With breast reduction, the front load is removed and thus hunching would no longer be present.
What happens during breast reduction surgery?
Breast Reduction in Delhi is performed under general anaesthesia at Aestiva Clinic. The surgery involves two techniques: excision and liposuction, which can be carried out alone or in combination depending upon the cause of breast enlargement.
During the surgery, the surgeon usually makes a cut around the nipple and areola extending down the breast. The size of the breast is reduced by the removal of excess breast skin and glandular tissues using the excision technique while the extra fat is removed with liposuction.
Once done, the breast is reshaped and the nipple as well as the areola are reset in place. Lastly, the operated breast is covered with sterile bandages and a support bra is given to hold the breast securely in place.
