Here are common queries about Breast Surgeries:
A surgery that aims to change and reshape a woman’s or man’s breasts is known as breast surgery. Breast surgery serves various medical and cosmetic purposes. Breast surgery performed for medical purposes includes cancer prevention surgeries such as lumpectomy, mastectomy, and breast reduction. On the other hand, common cosmetic breast surgeries include breast augmentation, breast reduction, breast lift, and breast reconstruction. Decapitation is the most common type of breast surgery.
There are various breast surgeries for medical and cosmetic purposes. Here are some of the most popular breast surgeries in the world:
Breast Augmentation: Breast augmentation, also known as ‘Breast Augmentation Mammoplasty’ or ‘Breast Augmentation’, is a surgery performed to increase breast size. Breast Augmentation is performed either with silicone / saline implants or with fat transfer. Both methods have pros / cons, and an experienced plastic surgeon can help you choose the best option. If you have naturally very small breasts or have lost breast volume due to weight loss or pregnancy, breast augmentation is an appropriate surgery for you.
Breast Reduction (Reduction Mammoplasty or Gynecomastia): Breast Reduction is a breast surgery performed to reduce excess fat, breast tissue and skin. This surgery is suitable for everyone with large breasts and makes them aware of their appearance. Sometimes large breasts also cause physical discomfort to people, especially during sports activities or when they cannot find clothes that fit them. Breast reduction is also performed in men suffering from Gynecomastia, a condition in which the tissues of the mammary gland are overproduced. Men prefer this surgery because it gives their bodies a strange shape and makes them look overweight.
Breast Lift : Breast lift, also called mastopexy, strengthens the shape of your breasts by lifting them and tightening the surrounding skin. This surgery is suitable for women who have lost fat volume and skin elasticity in their breasts as a result of aging, pregnancy or severe weight loss. Sometimes it is combined with breast augmentation or reduction. The whole purpose of this surgery is to increase the shape and size of your breasts so that they look fuller and rounder.
Breast Reconstruction : is a surgical procedure mostly performed on cancer patients after mastectomy or lumpectomy. Breast reconstruction is performed immediately or after a mastectomy a few months or years. Breast reconstruction can be performed through implants or tissue transfer. Saline or silicone implants are used to reconstruct breasts or to reconstruct the transfer of tissue from another part of the body, typically the lower belly for reconstruction. Patients need to find a board-certified plastic surgeon for safe and effective breast reconstruction surgery.
lumpectomy Breast Surgery : Lumpectomy is an operation performed by breast cancer patients to remove a tumor or cancerous lump in the breast. Compared to a mastectomy, most of the breast remains intact during this procedure. The main goal is to remove cancerous cells to stop the cancer from metastasizing. Lumpectomy is performed in early stage breast cancer patients.
Mastectomy Breast Surgery : Mastectomy is a breast cancer surgery for the complete removal of one or both breasts to treat or prevent breast cancer. A mastectomy is performed in patients with early-stage breast cancer or in people with a family history of breast cancer. It may take 4 to 8 weeks to recover after a mastectomy.
If you have decided to have breast surgery, the next important step is to find the right doctor. The first thing you should look for is the qualifications and experience of the doctor. Typically, breast surgeons perform medical breast surgeries, such as a mastectomy or lumpectomy.
