The traditional breast reduction technique may leave you with a vertical scar running down your breast plus a horizontal scar below it, across the crease (anchor-shaped). This extensive scar could spoil the final result.
However, new techniques have been developed that leave practically no scar!
If the amount of breast to remove is small, the surgery can be performed through a small incision that only leaves a scar around the areola. If there is more volume and the breast is sagging, another technique is used, leaving a vertical scar running down your breast. This scar is nearly invisible!
