REDUCTION MAMMOPLASTY

For many women, excessive breast volume poses a significant physical and psychological problem. Effective breast reduction often remains the only way to free affected women from this psychological strain. What with the bra straps that cut into the skin, chronic pain in the cervical spine region, increased sweating with recurrent skin inflammation and open wounds around the inframammary fold, it is barely possible to lead a normal daily life. Women suffering from this condition tend to avoid sport and don’t even contemplate going to the swimming pool or sauna.

A breast reduction can reduce the weight and size of large, often hanging (ptotic) breasts. At the same time, the outer skin is tightened. The reduction in volume and relief of the pain associated with carrying the weight, especially in the cervical spine region, leads to a massive functional improvement. Combined with aesthetic considerations, the successful operation brings about an entirely new feeling in the body and, in turn, completely new feelings of self-confidence. Affected women can once again participate in sports and social activities without feeling inhibited. Banal things, such as buying a suitable bra without having to search for hours, become a reality after a breast reduction.

The operation itself is relatively minor, but it can have far-reaching effects on all aspects of life. Those affected can be helped by simple means. We work to achieve natural results with a beautiful décolleté and inconspicuous scars. Let us help you transform your body image and give you a greater quality of life.
