This procedure is used to reduce the size of breasts improving not only the physical appearance of women, but also their quality of life; because in some cases, the size and sizeable weight of breasts could interfere in the normal activity producing pains in neck and back, generating bad habits of position. This surgery reduces the volume and size of breasts, thus correcting such alterations.
According to breast size, different techniques can be used: If the mammary hypertrophy is not so big, some techniques can be used around the nipple leaving some imperceptible scars. However, in moderate and severe hypertrophies, it is used greater incisions that can leave inverted T-shape scars, which extend from the nipple to the inframammary fold.
