Yes, it depends on what kind of breast plastic surgery you want to do. There are still great differences between different categories. Breast plastic surgery mainly includes breast augmentation, breast reduction, breast correction, breast reconstruction, nipple reconstruction and mastectomy.

Who is suitable for breast plastic surgery?

1. Giant breasts

The abnormal development of female breasts is obviously out of balance with the overall proportion, which is called breast hypertrophy or macromastia.

Indications: Adult women with breast enlargement caused by various factors have no obvious other system diseases, and adolescent breast enlargement is also included in the treatment scope.

2. Breast drooping

Breast drooping after breast feeding is more common, especially for thin people, and some patients coexist with giant breasts. The surgical method varies with the degree of prolapse. Patients with mild prolapse only need breast augmentation or reduction. If prolapse is serious, it is necessary to remove all the excessively drooping skin glands, remove the nipple areola, transplant it to a new nipple areola area, or transfer the nipple areola.

3. Nipple invagination

The female nipple is lower than the areola plane, and the downward depression is called nipple invagination, which is mostly bilateral and occasionally unilateral. Its pathogenesis is mostly caused by primary dysplasia of smooth muscle of nipple and areola and shortening of fibrous tissue between mammary ducts. Mild invagination can make the nipple protrude from the areola plane through massage stimulation or traction, but severe stimulation or traction can't make it protrude. Secondary nipple invagination is mostly caused by infection or gland surgery.

The nipple is obviously invaginated, and long-term pulling or negative pressure suction is ineffective, which affects breastfeeding or often causes nipple infection. No inflammation occurred within 12 weeks before operation.

4. Breast reconstruction

Breast reconstruction refers to the breast defect caused by tumor, trauma or congenital malformation, which is reconstructed through surgery. Most of them are unilateral.

Adult female breast defect, dysplasia or malignant tumor after radical surgery or complete radiotherapy and chemotherapy for more than 6 weeks. If glands are simply removed, breast reconstruction with latissimus dorsi, rectus abdominis or lower abdominal dermal tissue flap can be performed at the same time.

In addition, the proportion of areola is large and the color is dark; Breasts are naturally flat and slender; Excessive fullness leads to sagging; Chest plastic surgery can also be performed when the breast is enlarged, the spacing is too large, the cleavage is small or the breast is displaced, resulting in improper position.
