Are There Risks of Breast Reduction Surgery?

Risks such as hematoma, infection, numbness, and breastfeeding are the most frequently asked questions.

In breast reduction surgery, drains are placed after the operation. These drains are placed to prevent blood accumulation in the breast. The medical name for blood accumulation is Hematoma. Hematoma is not very common.
In this operation, drains are placed to prevent blood accumulation inside the stitches and precautions are taken against risks.

There is a possibility of infection in the stitches after the operation, as in every surgical operation. Antibiotics are used to prevent infection.
In the early days, there may be a temporary loss of sensation in the nipple. This is a temporary condition. Numbness disappears during the healing process.
After the surgery, the arms should not be lifted too much in the first days. It may cause the stitches to open. You can continue your daily life comfortably. However, the arms should not be strained.
