The method used in breast reduction surgery (breast reduction surgery) depends on each patient. There are different techniques

Inverted T is the T-shaped scar that extends around your breast and under your breast after breast reduction surgery
br /> remains, and although the scars on the nipple are not visible, as time goes by, your other scars turn into skin color, but the scars are not completely disappearing.
In vertical scar breast reduction surgery, only the nipple and There is a shorter scar extending from the nipple below, and these scars are relatively less visible than the inverted T. However, this technique is not a technique that can be applied to every patient
and is decided during the examination.
Many of my colleagues who perform breast reduction surgery in Izmir can apply both
techniques. The most important process in breast reduction surgery (breast reduction) is the process of deciding which
technique will be applied.

And although most of us men do not know how disturbing this situation is, we cannot understand its importance, but this reproach of women who want breast reduction is a very justified reproach. However, since breast aesthetics is a situation that increases self-confidence, I generally advise my patients to have the breast reduction required for breast aesthetics in accordance with their
body contours. Because after breast reduction, if you wanted it to be too small
, after a while when you look in the mirror, you may not like the current situation and you may want it to be a little larger this time. For this reason, if you have decided to have breast reduction surgery, my advice to you is to leave the amount of breast reduction to your doctor.

complication is very rare.

is very rare in this case. .
