Breast Reduction in Mexico
Also known as reduction mammaplasty, is a procedure to remove excess breast fat, glandular tissue and skin to achieve a breast size in proportion with your body and to alleviate the discomfort associated with overly large breasts.
THE BREAST REDUCTION IN MEXICO PROCEDURE
-
Medications are administered for your comfort during the surgical procedure.
-
The doctor makes an incision around the areola (depending on which type of incision the doctor chooses). Remember, the incision lines that remain are visible and permanent scars, although usually well concealed beneath a swimsuit or bra.
-
After the incision is made, the nipple (which remains tethered to its original blood and nerve supply) is then repositioned. The areola is reduced by excising skin at the perimeter, if necessary.
-
Underlying breast tissue is reduced, lifted and shaped. Occasionally, for extremely large pendulous breasts, the nipple and areola may need to be removed and transplanted to a higher position on the breast (free nipple graft).
-
The incisions are brought together to reshape the now smaller breast. Sutures are layered deep within the breast tissue to create and support the newly shaped breasts; sutures, skin adhesives and/or surgical tape close the skin. Incision lines are permanent, but in most cases will fade and significantly improve over time.
-
Over time, post-surgical swelling will resolve and incision lines will fade.
RECOVERY TIME FOR A BREAST REDUCTION IN TIJUANA MEXICO
When your Breast Reduction in Tijuana procedure is complete, dressings or bandages will be applied to the incisions. An elastic bandage or support bra may be worn to minimize swelling and support the breasts as they heal.
A small, thin tube may be temporarily placed under the skin to drain any excess blood or fluid that may collect.
