A breast reduction or uplift is a surgical procedure
designed to achieve the desired change in breast appearance.
The success of this procedure depends greatly on the communication
and relationship between the patient and the surgeon. It's important
to have a mutual understanding of the final desired look in terms of
shape, volume, and cleavage.
For many individuals, especially those with
very large breasts, a breast reduction can lead to significant improvements
in both function and quality of life. The primary difference between a breast
reduction and a breast uplift is that in a reduction, breast tissue is removed
to achieve the final outcome. Both procedures will result in a lifted breast appearance,
providing a fuller cleavage. Depending on the outcome desired, different types of incisions
may be necessary, and in the case of larger reductions or lifts, the scars can be more
noticeable, but Dr. Mahmoud Abu Dakka aims to make them as discreet as possible.
BREAST REDUCTION:
In addition to reducing the size and weight of the breast,
this surgery also improves the shape and droop. For patients
who suffer from various physical symptoms associated with having
large breasts such as backache and neck pains, the relief following
surgery is often immediate.

Breasts naturally droop with age, after pregnancy and breastfeeding, and after weight loss. This is because the skin and fibrous ligaments in the breast become stretched so the breast tissue is not supported. It is not possible to recreate the fibrous support of the breasts, but they can be reshaped by removing extra skin, remodelling the breast tissue and moving the nipples up to the best position on the new breasts. A Breast Uplift can make the breasts firmer and higher.
