Breast Reduction in Antalya Turkey

Breast reduction surgery in Antalya, Turkey is a cosmetic procedure that involves reducing the size and weight of large, heavy breasts to create a more proportionate and aesthetically pleasing body contour.

Large and sagging breasts can cause physical, psychological, and social issues. Excess weight in the breasts can lead to shoulder drooping, neck and back pain, and skin irritation beneath the breasts.

Breast reduction surgery in Turkey eliminates sagging, improves body proportions, and provides freedom in clothing and movement.

By removing excess breast tissue, fat, and stretched skin, the surgeon not only makes the breasts smaller, lighter, and firmer but also improves breast symmetry and corrects drooping.

Many women undergo this surgery to relieve physical symptoms like back, neck, and shoulder pain, while also enjoying aesthetic benefits.

This procedure can be performed on all patients who have completed puberty. It is recommended to stop smoking at least one month before surgery.

The operation typically lasts between 1.5 to 4 hours and is performed under general anesthesia. The average hospital stay is 1 day at our clinic in Antalya, Turkey.

It is advised to wear a medical support bra for 4–6 weeks following the procedure. Most patients can return to their normal routines within one week. However, heavy physical activity and sports should be avoided for at least 6 weeks.

What to Expect After Breast Reduction Surgery in Antalya

• Immediately after surgery, incisions are covered with gauze, and the breasts are supported with a special surgical bra.
  In some cases, small drains may be placed for a few days to remove excess blood or fluid.

  Most women experience mild discomfort during the first few days following the procedure, which can be managed with medication.
  Swelling and bruising may persist for several weeks. Wearing a surgical bra around the clock helps reduce swelling and support healing.

  You can typically resume social life and non-strenuous activities within a few weeks, but heavy exercise should be avoided for 3–4 weeks.

  Visible scars will remain on the breasts after a breast reduction, but these are almost always hidden beneath a bra or bikini and fade over time.

  Dressings are refreshed on the second day, and a surgical bra is applied. Wearing this specialized bra for about 15 days helps maintain breast shape and supports recovery.
