Breast Reduction Surgery: An O-Incision Review Without Implants!

Hello, this is Melon Plastic Surgery!

Today, we've brought you a review of breast reduction surgery for those concerned about breast hypertrophy and sagging!

Let's also explore the different methods of reduction.

Lighten heavy, large breasts with Melon's Breast Reduction Solution

The core of breast reduction surgery is the technique to achieve natural volume and contour, as if it were your original breast, while minimizing scars.

Breast reduction surgery, which inevitably leaves scars due to a larger incision area compared to typical augmentation surgery,

That's why Melon manages scars with precise suturing and thorough aftercare to help them blend as closely as possible with your natural skin.

After carefully diagnosing the size, volume, sagging, and skin condition of the breasts, we design a personalized surgery to create the perfect volume and contour. There are three main breast reduction incision methods:

1. Circular Incision for Large Breast Reduction

This incision method is for those with mild breast hypertrophy and sagging. It reduces volume by removing the necessary tissue. It creates a natural breast line without affecting breastfeeding or nipple sensation.

2. Vertical Incision for Hypertrophic and Sagging Breasts

This incision method is for large and sagging breasts, involving a straight incision from the areola border to the inframammary fold. Both volume and sagging are improved by lifting the areas incised once at the areola and twice vertically.

3. O-Incision for Severely Hypertrophic and Sagging Breasts

This incision method is for severely sagging, hypertrophic breasts. It involves an incision from the areola border to the inframammary fold to remove excessive breast tissue and skin, and repositions the nipple.

<Here's the review we're featuring today>

A female patient in her 50s, who had been struggling with sagging breasts for 5 years. She consulted with us at Melon for her first breast reduction surgery consultation and canceled her second scheduled consultation at a university hospital! It's truly not easy to choose a hospital after just one consultation... It seems her trust and confidence in Melon were very strong. After the surgery, she felt a surge of confidence! She told us it was a turning point, preparing her for the second act of her life as a middle-aged woman ❤
