4 Types of Breast Reduction Surgery
The surgical technique employed will be chosen in consideration with your plastic surgeon. The choice ultimately belongs to you.
Here are the main types of breast reduction techniques:
1. Vertical or Lollipop Breast Reduction in Tunisia
This technique involves a vertical incision from the bottom of the areola to the fold under the breast, as well as a small incision around the areola. This technique allows the surgeon to remove excess breast tissue and reshape the breast while minimizing scarring.
2. Anchor or Inverted T Breast Reduction
This technique involves an anchor-shaped incision around the areola, vertically down to the breast crease, and horizontally along the breast crease. This technique is typically used for larger breast reductions and allows the surgeon to remove more tissue.
3. Liposuction Breast Reduction
This technique involves removing excess fat from the breast using liposuction, without removing excess skin or breast tissue. This technique is typically best suited for patients with good skin elasticity and minimal breast sagging.
4. Scarless Breast Reduction
This technique involves using liposuction or a combination of liposuction and surgical techniques to remove excess breast tissue through small incisions, without leaving visible scars on the breast.
