Breast reduction is a surgical procedure to remove excess glandular, fatty, and skin tissue, reshaping the breasts into a more proportionate, lifted, and aesthetically pleasing form. At Juventina, procedures are performed under the guidance of Prof. Dr. Ahčan, an internationally renowned surgeon with over 20 years of experience and exceptional results in breast reconstruction on a global scale.
We know of several surgical treatment methods. The first is liposuction, which involves removing fatty tissue from the breast. Liposuction can be used as a standalone method or as an addition to other surgical methods. Its main advantage is small scars, but it can only affect breast volume, not shape. After liposuction, breasts can sag even more due to excess skin.
More often than not, surgical techniques involving the removal of excess skin and glandular tissue are chosen for breast reduction. The procedure is similar to a breast lift. Various techniques are available for correcting oversized and sagging breasts. Common to all techniques are the removal of excess skin, reshaping (reducing) the gland, and repositioning the areola and nipple to a more suitable location. Sometimes, liposuction of specific areas of the breast is also employed. The ultimate goal is to achieve proportionate, symmetrical breasts of an appropriate size and shape, and to eliminate functional issues.
The first step is a thorough consultation where we analyze your concerns, desires, and anatomy. Together, we will determine the optimal breast size and shape.
If necessary, we also perform additional diagnostics (ultrasound or mammography) to ensure the safety of the procedure and optimal planning.
Before surgery, we recommend:
The operation is performed under general anesthesia. The surgeon removes excess tissue, reshapes the breast, and repositions the nipple to a higher, more aesthetically pleasing position.
Based on anatomy, we use different techniques that allow:
The wound is closed with precise layered suturing, which allows for better healing.
Successful breast reduction is based on precise preoperative planning and an individual approach. Before the procedure, the surgeon takes detailed measurements, analyzes the chest anatomy, and assesses the ratio between glandular and fatty breast tissue. Precise preoperative marking and careful hemostasis are also important parts of the surgery, reducing the possibility of complications and allowing for better aesthetic results. After surgery, drainage tubes and a compression bra are usually placed to reduce swelling and support tissue healing. Scars are more visible initially after the procedure but soften over time with proper care and modern suturing techniques, becoming less noticeable. Most patients experience a significant improvement in quality of life, easier movement, and greater physical comfort after the procedure.
After the procedure, swelling, tenderness, and moderate pain are present, which gradually decrease.
It is important to consider:
For best results, we recommend:
Most patients soon feel significant relief – less pain and more freedom of movement. With the additional program Juventina Care 360° During recovery, we ensure comprehensive, guided, and optimal support.
