How is a breast reduction performed in Turkey?

Depending on the size and shape of the breast, your surgeon will select one of these  techniques to reduce the size of the breasts.

Liposuction: Using tiny incisions made in the area to be suctioned, the surgeon inserts a tube into the vacuum apparatus. This tube expels fluid and fat from the breast in order to function. When less breast reduction surgery will be done—that is, when the breast is smaller and it is believed that the skin can make up for the difference—this procedure is chosen.

If a minor reduction is to be performed or if it is required to correct breast drooping, the lollipop approach or vertical incision is preferable. In order to remove extra tissue and fat, shape the breast, and raise it, the surgeon makes incisions from the area under the breast to the area surrounding the areola (the colored area around the nipple).

The surgeon uses the Reverse T Incision Method (Anchor Method) to make incisions along the breast’s lower fold and down toward the areola. It is typically used when there is significant sagging or unevenness, as well as for big breast reductions.

What is expected after the breast reduction in Turkey?

Every patient’s recovery time is different. But generally, most people will experience a similar recovery. A normal week-by-week breast reduction healing might look like this:

First Day

When you wake up from your surgery, you’ll be wearing a surgical bra and two different kinds of bandages over your wounds. As soon as you arrive at your hotel, try to get as much rest as you can. Using ice packs or a bag of frozen peas on your breasts can help reduce swelling. In the first 24 hours after surgery, you should do these every 30 minutes or as often as you can. You can take a shower, but it’s best to have someone with you because you might feel lightheaded. You’ll have a big, thick dressing taped to your chest, which you can take off before you take a shower. Your stitching line will be covered by another dressing.

The first week

When you are discharged after 1 night stay at hospital, you will receive daily visits at hotel by our medical team. You will be transferred to the clinic for your last control. After a week, you should be able to do light walks again. Many patients can do light work or chores around the house 4 to 5 days after surgery.

Two weeks later

Keep wearing your compression gear and supportive bra. About two weeks after surgery, you should feel well enough to go back to a desk job.

Third week

By three weeks, most patients feel well enough to go back to their normal routines. You may still be hurting and swollen, but this will get better over the next few weeks.

Sixth week

After six weeks, you might not have to wear your clothing anymore. Once your stitches have healed, you can go back to wearing a regular bra. After 6 weeks, you can start doing light exercise again.

Follow your surgeon’s advice and pay attention to your body to make sure your recovery goes smoothly.
