WHAT IS BREAST REDUCTION?
For overly large breasts, there is breast reduction surgery or reduction mammoplasty: a surgical procedure aimed at reducing the size of abnormally large breasts to make them proportional to the body.
In this surgery, the excess fat is removed from the patient’s breasts. Although the surgery is classified as cosmetic surgery, people, to a great extent, opt for this surgery due to medical complications like neck and back pain they face.
REASONS TO CHOOSE IRAN AS YOUR BREAST REDUCTION DESTINATION
Whether to travel to another country for your breast surgery may be a tough decision to make. However, when it comes to undergoing the surgery with the same level of quality but affordable price, it would be reasonable if you travel to a country with an excellent reputation like Iran.
Today, Iran’s advances in medical services together with the Iranian surgeons’ expertise offers reliable solutions to many people suffering from body deformities. The country stands out among the top 10 countries performing plastic surgeries with the highest rate of nose surgery in the world. So, the country’s reaching front line of medical tourism in the world especially in the field of plastic surgeries.
Plastic surgeries including breast reduction are done with a high percentage of success and safety. This is because the country embraces a powerful society of board-certified and proficient plastic surgeons who not only have gained up-to-date knowledge of their field of specialization but also are equipped with many years of experience and proven records of successful surgeries.
As mentioned earlier, a strong reason making people flock to Iran lies behind the fact that everything in Iran is cheaper than anywhere in the world, from accommodation and travel services to healthcare services.
Last but not least, this country has caught the eyes of many people for the exotic tourism experience it offers, being ranked among the 52 must-go places in 2019 by The New York Times. The reasons include, but are not limited to, the great history, rich culture, unique architecture, superb cuisine, and most-importantly warm-hearted people.
HOW IS BREAST REDUCTION SURGERY PERFORMED IN IRAN?
Breast reduction procedure usually starts with getting general anesthesia to put the patient in sleep during the surgery. The surgeon will then make a circular incision around the breast nipples. The incision will be continued downward to reach the breast crease. Subsequently, excessive fat, tissue, and skin will be removed from the breasts.
If the patient’s breasts are extremely large, the nipples will be removed and reattached to the breast. Otherwise, the nipples will remain attached but re-positioned. Finally, the incisions will be stitched and brought up together.
Different stages of breast reduction surgery
First Few Weeks after Surgery
Moreover, patients are recommended to avoid sexual activity during the first few weeks, as it may cause inflammation around the incisions.
First Few Months after Surgery
There may be some temporary side effects during the first few months. They include altered sensations of the nipples and breast skin, numbness (in some women), and hypersensitivity of the breast area.
Breast reduction and lift
As can be inferred, reduction mammoplasty usually involves a breast lift as well. This is when the breasts are significantly heavy and pendulous and need to be lifted, as they lose a significant amount of fat and tissue during the reduction operation. In this case, the surgeon both removes excess fat and tissue from your breasts and repositions your nipples so that they are lifted.
Is Reduction Mammoplasty Worth It?
‘I feel like a new person’: this is what Ariel Winter, American actress, tells about having a breast reduction surgery. She decided to go through this surgery as she was suffering from back pain. But, is breast reduction really worth it?
Breast reduction surgery relieves all the pains resulted from large breasts, bringing you back to a normal life with no more restrictions. This is the first and foremost gift of reduction mammoplasty.
Another factor encouraging people to go through this surgery is that it enhances self-confidence/satisfaction. Breast reduction improves patients’ life in terms of physical and psychological health and well-being.
A study on the outcomes of plastic surgeries shows that this procedure has improved quality of life more than any other cosmetic procedures.
With all being said, potential complications are an inevitable part of any surgery. For reduction mammoplasty, there is bleeding, swelling, bruising, scarring, infection, adverse reaction to the anesthesia, loss of sensation in the nipples, and difficulty in breastfeeding.
However, looking on the bright side, these side effects/complications are rare and often temporary. They also subside during the first year after the surgery.
In the end, although we believe the moon lives in the lining of your skin, deciding to get rid of physical and psychological distresses imposed by your body deformities would help you create a better ‘you’.
