The excessive or exaggerated development of breasts is known as gigantomastia, which leads to multiple problems both physically and psychologically for women.
“Women with very large breasts have a hard time. There are many reasons: during adolescence and youth the main problem is psychological, leading to the development of complexes that alter their social development to unsuspected levels for those who do not have this condition”.
That is only part of the problem for women who suffer from gigantomastia. If we look at the physical and health part, back and neck pain begins, which eventually ends in spinal deformities, skin irritation (which can lead to fungal infections), and even respiratory difficulties.
When talking about breast reduction surgery or reductive mammoplasty, it is much more than improving the physical appearance, it is improving the quality of life of women.
In classic breast reduction, the patient generally seeks to both decrease the size and lift the breasts to improve their appearance. For this, breast prostheses can also be included, and it is important that the patient does not have significant weight gains and losses, because it will inevitably affect the result of the surgery.
Despite the fact that cosmetically this surgery does not leave small scars (and the patient must be aware of this), the quality of life improves rapidly; no more muscle pain, improves posture, breathing and even the social life of the patient.
