Heavy breasts cause back pain, pain in the head or shoulders and are inconvenient besides being embarrassing. And when it occurs in men it is all the more embarrassing. People try to reduce their breasts by losing weight and exercising. But sometimes these methods do not work. This is especially so if the body structure is small and only the breasts are big. It will look very incongruous.
Such people would like to go in for breast reduction. The traditional plastic surgery will always leave a scar. On some women these scars are very ungainly as they are visible. Some women scar very easily and even with the passage of time, these scars do not fade or go away. There are other methods of breast reduction, which do not leave scars. Liposuction is one such method, which is easy, painless and scar-less.
Liposuction reduces breasts by removing the extra fat. If there is enough elasticity in the skin, the breasts will automatically get a breast lift, besides reducing the weight. Liposuction consists of melting the fat and then removing it by suction. It causes less trauma to the breast, there is faster recovery and very little bleeding, pain or swelling. Also there are hardly any postoperative complications. Women who have reached menopause can go in for liposuction as during menopause fat replaces glandular tissue. Those who do not have excessively dense breasts or too large breasts can go in for this type of procedure.
As liposuction only removes the fat and leaves the glandular breast tissue behind, women who choose liposuction can also breast-feed their babies after the procedure. Also this method leaves the nipples intact. In this surgery only a small incision will be made in the folds of the skin. A thin cannula (surgical tube) will be inserted to liposuck the fat. There is no disruption to the nipple areas. 1 to 3 cup size reduction is possible using this method.
Scar-less breast reduction procedure is done on medical grounds rather than for aesthetic or cosmetic reasons though this method enhances the appearance of the breasts. As this operation is done for medical reasons, health insurance may cover the expenses though it is necessary to confirm this before going in for the surgery.
Other methods of scarless breast reduction is the use of pills, which reduces the size without interfering in any way with the breast formation. |
