Liposuction breast reduction in London

Liposuction has become the most common body contouring procedure in cosmetic surgery over the past two decades. Liposuction has increased in its safety and effectiveness which has increased its popularity. Before liposuction, the only method of fat removal was through surgical removal which was associated with significant blood loss and prominent scarring. Liposuction is a minimally invasive method of removing fat deposits with minimal scarring.

Many surgeons note during traditional breast reduction that the breasts of many women with mammary enlargement are predominantly fatty in nature. Despite this fact, liposuction as a main method to reduce large breasts has been slow to gain acceptance as a valid treatment option. Many plastic surgeons have previously believed that using liposuction to reduce large breasts could increase the risk of breast ptosis or dropping. Traditional breast reduction is accompanied with tightening of the breast skin at the expense of an increased scar burden. Liposuction results in the ability of surgeons to reduce large breasts without significant scars. Liposuction breast reduction also allows for a much quicker recovery compared with traditional surgical breast reduction and with less complications. Liposuction breast reduction is not for everyone but understanding the pros and cons of breast reduction with liposuction will allow many patients to benefit than was previously the case.

Many women dislike their larger breasts and therefore consider breast reduction surgery (mammoplasty). In some instances, they will cause physical pain including back and neck pain. For others, they appear out of proportion to the rest of their body. Many may find them aesthetically unappealing and have trouble finding a bra and clothing which will fit properly and comfortably.

For women who not wish to continue to have larger breasts, you may wish to undergo a breast reduction. However, there are other options than a surgical breast reduction. You can also opt to have a breast reduction with liposuction for smaller degrees of breast reduction which avoids the scars of traditional breast reduction surgery.

Expected results with liposuction breast reduction

Traditional breast reduction surgery involves numerous incisions which allow the surgeon to excise the skin and remove excess breast tissue and fat. However, many women do not wish to undergo such an invasive procedure, particularly one that will leave prominent, visible scars on the breast.

Fortunately, breast reduction with liposuction is a suitable alternative. This option involves smaller incisions and a quicker recovery time. This procedure is treated as an outpatient surgery, meaning you will be able to leave the same day as the procedure.

I had 360 Liposuction and BBL with centre for surgery 11/01/2021. I found centre for surgery by searching online. My consultation was booked with Dr. Tillo, the procedure was explained to me thoroughly including the risks, the clinic is beautiful and very clean. I received the best care I could think of on the day of my surgery, the staff were very friendly and caring, the surgery went well and the result was amazing! My recovery was very quick too with no complications. I am very happy with the follow up and after care. I would highly recommend centre for surgery.

Highly Recommend Mr Tilo and this clinic. My partner had Facial Scar Revision 5 weeks ago and can honestly say the speed, care and attention Mr Tilo and the team gave him was amazing. Right from the outset when I contacted Michael for a quote the speed and professionalism he gave was 5 star. My partner was also very nervous about the whole procedure and the attention the nursing team gave helped ease any nerves

I had a wonderful experience . I cannot thank you all enough. The location is convenient, the actual place is lovely , non clinical looking. I had liposuction carried out and I was amazed at how caring and wonderful the entire team were towards me. I would definitely recommend to friends and family. Big shout out to Dr Tillo , nursing team and wonderful reception team. Please don't be disheartened by bad reviews , often people ask for prices to try and avoid a proper consultation. If you are seriously considering surgery, you should always have time for a proper consultation with a surgeon who can then provide you with an accurate estimate/quote for propsed (suitable)treatment.

Ideal candidates for liposuction breast reduction

Breast reduction with liposuction may sound appealing, but it may not be a suitable procedure for all women.

This procedure will be suitable for those who:

Do not require a breast lift
Do not require a large amount of fat and tissue to be removed
Would like less visible scarring
Are in their 40s or above

Those who are in their 20s or 30s may not be suitable candidates. Breast reduction by liposuction removes fat from the breasts, which is more apparent in women who are older. This is because breast tissue becomes replaced with fat as we naturally age. Therefore women in their 20s and 30s will not have much fat to remove but will have more breast tissue. Women in this age group who would like a breast reduction may wish to choose the surgical options.

If you are considered to be a normal candidate, you may be interested in what finance we have available.

Preparation for breast reduction with liposuction

At Centre for Surgery, we strongly believe that the success of any procedure including liposuction breast reduction can be improved with proper patient preparation. We strive to go above and beyond to make sure that all our patients are prepared as well as possible for surgery – physically, mentally and emotionally.

liposuction breast reduction in London

Before your breast reduction, you will need to:

Stop smoking a few weeks before your surgery
Avoid taking blood-thinning medication, aspirin and herbal supplements
Undergo a medical evaluation
You may need to have a baseline mammogram to detect any future changes in breast tissue

What tests may I need before surgery?

Scheduling a Mammogram prior to your breast reduction with liposuction

A mammogram is an x-ray examination which may be performed before or after your procedure to identify any changes to breast tissue. If you have a personal or family history of breast cancer or any other risk factors for breast cancer, your surgeon may recommend a baseline mammogram to be be done before your procedure.

The liposuction breast reduction procedure

Before having a breast reduction with liposuction, you will be required to attend a consultation with the surgeon. They will be able to assess whether or not you are an appropriate candidate for this procedure, or whether you would benefit from surgical breast reduction. The surgeon may also warn about the risks of travelling abroad for cosmetic surgery.

Surgical breast reduction generally involves incisions around the areolas and down to the breast crease, which allows the excess skin and tissue to be excised.

However, breast reduction with liposuction involves far smaller incisions. The surgeon will make two small incisions at the crease of the breasts. These will only be about one millimetre long. This allows for a small cannula to be inserted, which sucks out the excess fatty tissue. The removal of the excess fat from the breasts allows the elastic skin and tissue to retract, creating a natural breast lift.

Nerves and blood vessels will be maintained during the procedure. Breast reduction with liposuction will also be able to fix any asymmetry problems experienced prior to surgery.

The recovery process after liposuction breast reduction

As opposed to a surgical breast reduction, you will have a quicker recovery time with breast reduction with liposuction.

You may still experience some swelling and bruising where the incisions have been made. You may wish to take pain medication or apply ice packs to the area to help reduce swelling.

You will be given a compression garment which you will need to wear during the recovery period. This will help to reduce swelling and keep your breasts in the best possible shape.

The scars where the incisions were made may be more visible straight after surgery, however, with time they will fade and will no longer be noticeable.
