Breast reduction operation, also known as reduction mammoplasty, is an operation that can provide women with health problems caused by large breasts, a way to get rid of these problems by reducing their disproportionate breast size. The excess glandular tissue, fat and skin are removed from the body and the breast is made firmer, better shaped and smaller. During breast reduction and breast lift operations, the nipple can also be done smaller.
After the breast reduction operation, the changed body image can be seen immediately.

Breast reduction surgery is also preferred by men. Breast tissue growth, called gynecomastia, causes large breast appearance in men. Obesity, hormone imbalances, genetics, alcohol consumption and excessive weight loss are among the factors that cause gynecomastia.
Breast reduction operation takes about 2-4 hours and is performed under general anesthesia.

How is Breast Reduction Operation Performed?
Breast reduction surgery is basically performed by incisions made on the breasts and then resizing the breasts by removing excess fat, breast tissue and skin and reshaping them with stitches to be proportional to the body.
Breast reduction can be explained in 3 steps:
1. Incision
There are different incision methods used for breast reduction. The 3 most common incision techniques used for breast reduction surgery are:
- Anchor type (Reverse T reduction): This technique involves an anchor-shaped incision starting around the nipple, descending vertically, and then horizontally along the breast crease.
- Circular pattern around nipple: It includes an incision in a circular pattern around the areola.
- Keyhole (Racket) pattern: This technique involves an incision around the nipple and vertically descending.
Your surgeon will choose the most appropriate breast reduction incision method, taking into account the size and shape of your breasts as well as the desired breast size.
2. Nipple repositioning and tissue removal
After the incisions are made, breast reduction continues with the repositioning of the nipples. If the breasts are excessively large, the nipples can be removed and repositioned above the breasts. Then, excess fat, breast tissue and skin are removed.
3. Closing the cuts
The incisions are brought together to reshape and reduce the breast. To create and support reshaped breasts, the surgeon stitches deep into the breast tissue. Skin adhesives or surgical tapes are used to suture the incisions. Incision lines are permanent, but often fade significantly or become invisible over time.
