Reduction mammoplasty and mastopexy

Aurora Reig Clinic Valencia

Reduction mammoplasty and mastopexy are two cosmetic breast surgery procedures that, although they can be performed independently, are often combined to achieve a more harmonious and aesthetically pleasing result.

At the Dr. Aurora Reig Cosmetic Medicine Clinic , in Valencia, we offer both treatments with a personalized approach that prioritizes safety, health and natural results.

Everything you need to know about Breast Reduction & Mastopexy

Reduction mammoplasty, or breast reduction, is the surgical procedure designed to reduce the size of the breasts, providing a more balanced silhouette and improving the patient’s quality of life. At Dr. Aurora Reig’s clinic in Valencia, this intervention is performed with a personalized approach, ensuring natural results and proportionate to the anatomy of each person.

This procedure consists in the elimination of excess breast tissue, fat and skin, relieving physical discomfort such as back, neck and shoulder pain, as well as skin irritations or difficulties to perform daily activities. In addition, it improves the symmetry and shape of the breast, achieving an aesthetic and functional result.

Mastopexy or breast lift surgery is a procedure designed to correct breast ptosis, that is, the drooping of the breasts caused by factors such as aging, pregnancy, breastfeeding or weight changes. At Dr. Aurora Reig’s clinic in Valencia, this intervention is performed with precision and a personalized approach, achieving a firmer, lifted and harmonious breast.

The procedure consists of removing excess skin, repositioning the breast tissue and repositioning the nipple to restore a rejuvenated and natural look to the breasts. Depending on each patient, mastopexy can be performed with or without the placement of breast implants, allowing not only to lift the breast, but also to restore its volume if necessary.

Benefits of reduction mammoplasty:

  • Improves posture and relieves physical pain associated with the weight of the breast.
  • It facilitates the practice of physical exercise and improves quality of life.
  • Provides a more proportionate and harmonious silhouette.
  • Improves self-esteem and personal confidence.

Benefits of mastopexy:

  • Rejuvenates the appearance of the breast, restoring firmness and turgor.
  • Improves breast symmetry.
  • Provides a more defined and harmonious contour.
  • Increases confidence and improves body image.

Can breast reduction and breast lift be combined?

Yes, both reduction mammoplasty (or breast reduction) and mastopexy (or breast lift) are procedures that can be performed together when the patient has a large breast with pronounced sagging. This combination allows:

  • Reduce the volume of the breast proportionally.
  • Lift and firm the breast for a more aesthetic result.
  • Improve the shape and position of the areola and nipple.

Dr. Aurora Reig performs an exhaustive evaluation to determine the best option according to the needs and objectives of each patient.

Treatment process

Intervention

At Dr. Aurora Reig’s clinic we perform breast reduction and mastopexy under general anesthesia in certified operating rooms. The surgery lasts approximately 2-4 hours and is ambulatory, which means it does not require hospitalization.

Details of the procedure:

  • General anesthesia: Guarantees that the patient does not feel pain during the procedure.
  • Incision closure: Advanced techniques are used to minimize scarring and improve recovery.

Postoperative and recovery

Breast reduction and mastopexy have a fast and comfortable recovery, as long as you follow the medical recommendations:

  • Rest: Avoid physical exertion during the first weeks.
  • Support: Use of a post-surgical bra to promote healing.
  • Return to routine: Most patients return to normal life in one to two weeks.

Duration and results

  • Immediately visible results, although the final appearance is best appreciated after complete tissue recovery, about 3 to 6 months.
  • Discrete scars that improve over time thanks to advanced suturing techniques.
  • Long-lasting results, especially if a healthy lifestyle and stable weight are maintained.
