General information

Breast mammoplasty lasts on average from an hour to 4 hours. It is performed using general anesthesia, regardless of the chosen method of implementation. This type of surgery helps to correct the figure and restore it after sudden weight loss, childbirth or breastfeeding. It can either increase or decrease the size of the breast depending on the patient's wishes or needs. In general, breast correction requires the insertion of implants. With their help, the breast can be raised or lowered to the desired level, as well as restore its shape and elasticity. The doctor will definitely offer several options that are most acceptable to the patient for improving the shape, size or volume of the breast. The cost of mammoplasty can be found on the portal .

For breast augmentation, the following are used:

  • endoprosthetics;
  • reduction mammoplasty;
  • mastopexy.

For breast reduction, the following are used:

  • liposuction;
  • vertical suture method;
  • gigantomastia;
  • anchor incision.

Procedure

Preparation

Before the operation, the patient must:

  • undergo an ECG and ultrasound of the mammary glands glands;
  • take a coagulogram and blood test;
  • get the results of a hepatitis test.

The patient must stop using hormonal drugs and contraceptives 2 weeks before the operation. A week before, you should stop drinking alcohol and smoking.

The process of mammoplasty

Endoprosthetics is performed using implants (prostheses). They can be of different shapes, compositions and fillings. Usually, this technique is used to eliminate breast asymmetry, with a sagging effect and with various types of breast atrophy. The inserted prostheses can be used for up to 15 years or more. Reduction mammoplasty is performed using resection of fatty and glandular tissue, as well as excess skin. Mastopexy or breast lift requires removal of excess skin and fixation of the gland on the anterior part of the chest wall with mandatory correction of the shape of the breast. Breast liposuction is usually performed using a vacuum method. As for the vertical suture method, gigantomastia and anchor incision, they are performed only by cutting off excess tissue. Such operations can be dangerous to the life and health of the patient.
