Breast Reduction and Lift in Cancún

Lift Your Breasts and Reduce Their Weight

What Does Breast Reduction Involve?

Breast reduction involves removing excess skin from the breasts to give them a shape and size more appropriate to the patient’s body structure. There are many surgical techniques available, and the choice of technique depends on each patient’s needs. The most common techniques are the vertical incision and the inverted “T” incision.

With Dr. Marco Carmona, a Certified Aesthetic and Plastic Surgeon, you can undergo breast reduction in Cancún with complete confidence.

Objectives

• Reduce breast size and improve the shape and symmetry of the breasts.
• Relieve symptoms associated with excess breast volume, such as back, shoulder, and neck pain, and dermatitis in the breast fold.
• Lift the breasts with or without the use of breast implants, achieving a natural and youthful result, and improving body proportion and patient self-esteem.

Postoperative Follow-Up

• Stitch removal: After ten days.
• Recovery: You can resume normal activities after two to three weeks.
• Final result: Visible within two to three months.
• Scarring: Slightly visible around the areolas, with a vertical scar and a horizontal scar hidden in the breast fold (inverted “T” shape), which may be visible depending on the patient’s healing process.
• Special treatments: Use of a special bra and attending therapies recommended by the plastic surgeon.

Pre-Surgery Tests

In addition to routine blood tests, a mammogram will be necessary.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Will I be able to breastfeed my children? Breast reduction and lift surgery removes many of the ducts that transport milk to the nipple, so breastfeeding will not be possible. This procedure is not recommended for women who wish to breastfeed.
• Will there be noticeable scars? At Shape and Beauty, we strive to minimize the effects of scarring. These scars are permanent but can be easily concealed with clothing, even with swimwear.
• Will my breasts lose sensitivity with this procedure? In some cases, the nipple retains its blood vessels and nerve endings. However, in cases where the breasts are very large and sagging, repositioning of the areolas and nipples may be necessary, which could lead to loss of sensitivity in those areas.
