Breast Reduction & Breast Uplift | Dr Maurizio Viel | Cornerstone Clinic | Dubai

WHAT IS BREAST REDUCTION AND UPLIFT SURGERY

Breast reduction with breast uplift is a common surgical procedure that is designed to reduce the size and weight of the breasts while simultaneously improving their position and shape. Women with bigger breasts tend to experience back-related problems that range from mild to severe, as well as feeling insecure, self-conscious, or uncomfortable with their image. These factors could lead to the consideration of breast reduction and uplift surgery.

Breast reduction addresses 2 significant concerns: the removal of excess breast tissue and fat that will lead to smaller breast size and the repositioning of the breast tissue to create firmer and more elevated breasts.

 

BENEFITS OF BREAST REDUCTION WITH BREAST UPLIFT

The benefits of surgery include:

  • improved back related problems since the removal of excess tissue significantly alleviates back, neck and shoulder pain that came from excess weight.
  • improved self-confidence and image. Many women tend to feel more confident with their new breast size and appearance
  • reduced skin irration from sweating and chafing under the breast crease
  • enhanced exercise performance. Larger breast can make physical exercise uncomfortable or painful

 

SURGERY

During your consultation with the qualified plastic surgeon at Cornerstone Clinic in Dubai Marina, Dr Maurizio Viel, the overall goals, medical history and desired outcome will all be discussed in order to achieve the best possible results. Dr Maurizio Viel will perform a thorough physical examination which entails an accurate assessment of skin elasticity and the breast tissue as well as considering your overall health. After this initial consultation, the doctor will illustrate the steps involved in the surgery and the aftercare.

The surgical procedure is performed under general anaesthesia and the specific incision technique used will vary according to the anatomy of the person and the desired outcome. The incisions can be made around the nipple and areola or under the natural crease of the breast. After surgery, some swelling, bruising and discomfort is to be expected. Pain medication can be taken to alleviate these symptoms. During the recovery period, a specific compression garment will need to be worn for a specific time period that the doctor will discuss with you. This compression garment will support the healing process and reduce excessive swelling. Full recovery is expected at around 6 to 8 weeks, with most daily activities resuming within a few days from the operation. Any strenuous exercise must be avoided for a few weeks and can only be resumed following the doctor’s approval.

 

Breast reduction and uplift surgery is a highly effective procedure, however, just like any other surgery, it is important to discuss these considerations with the doctor:

  • scarring: after the surgery, the incision scarring can be noticeable. The scarring will tend to fade away over time and be much less visible. If the incision is done under the breast, where the natural crease is, the scarring will be even less visible. Laser treatment can be performed to improve the overall look of the scars
  • breastfeeding: depending on the technique used, this surgery could affect the ability to breastfeed. It is necessary to inform the doctor about the possibility of breastfeeding in the future so that the best suited techniques can be used.
  • long-term results: while the surgery offers long-lasting improvements to the breasts, it is necessary to avoid any weight fluctuations to maintain the results over time.
