Dr. Manuel Díaz Guzmán — Breast Surgery

What Is Breast Reduction?

Breast reduction, or reduction mammoplasty, is a surgical procedure that removes excess breast tissue, fat, and skin to achieve breasts more proportionate with the rest of your body, and in many cases less strain on your back and shoulders.

Patients seek it for functional reasons as much as aesthetic ones: chronic back and neck pain, deep bra strap grooves, irritation under the breast crease, or difficulty exercising or finding clothes that fit well. The decision on technique and how much tissue to remove is made in consultation with Dr. Manuel Díaz Guzmán, based on your anatomy and goals.

How Does Breast Reduction Work?

The process starts with a consultation where Dr. Manuel Díaz Guzmán evaluates your anatomy, the current weight and volume of your breasts, and the result you're looking for. That's where the incision technique and how much tissue to remove for a proportionate, functional result are defined.

Before surgery, a complete preoperative evaluation is performed. The medical results determine whether you're in condition to have surgery safely — your safety comes before the date on the calendar. The surgery is performed under anesthesia, and usually includes repositioning the nipple and areola to a higher, more natural position.

Technique and Considerations

There's no single technique for every patient. Dr. Manuel Díaz Guzmán defines the right approach in your evaluation, considering these factors:

  • Incision Pattern
  • Amount of Tissue to Remove
  • Areola Repositioning
  • Symmetry Between Breasts
  • Sensitivity Preservation
  • Future Breastfeeding Ability
